Watching my city turn into more of a high-profile city, slowly, over the course of decades, is like watching paint dry. This is taking forever! I should just move to London, LOL.
I think my favorite "skyline" is London's. I put "skyline" in quotes because it's not really London's profile that's fun to look at so much as the aerials. It's this thick urban expanse that stretches toward the horizon, with clusters of modern skyscrapers shooting up here and there. There's something very unique and weird about it. It almost looks sci-fi. I have found myself pausing BBC World News, just to stare at the set's background imagery.
The last time I was in London, that egg building was just being topped off. That was forever ago. It's time for another visit.
