Visit Abbey Road
and watch tourists reenact the ever-so-famous album cover with great schadenfreude (if that's your thing).

It's a wee bit voyeuristic - I just watched a middle-aged man in a suit cross the road at 6:15am, watch the traffic for a bit, then meander back across the road a few metres up from the pedestrian crossing, holding up a camera or a phone and taking photos of the empty road.

Hmmm. I see many people are truly aware of being in context there. But what of the lady who just now carried her barefoot child across Abbey Road on her back? Just a spontaneous traverse. But then, on the other side, the young girl demounted, put her shoes on and they immediately walked back in normal fashion. What next? I wanted to see three (3) barefoot piggyback riders taking the Beatles' places in single file... *please help me!*

this is truly the best of the internets! thanks! And, for some reason, a bit sad, but, that's ok..... time is as time does.
