I live in the capital city in the UK, London, so thought it would be fun to do a rampage of appreciation for all the things I appreciate and love about London. Learning from my rampage yesterday, I will try to concentrate on only things that feel good in a whole-hearted way, rather than list all the things that I intellectually know I should appreciate. This one’s from the heart! 
Here we go!
