observations

Also,
You know what I do miss? 
Free refills.
It is unheard of here.  Just a cultural observation, but no one gives free refills.  Even McDonalds.  You know how back home we have the soda fountains that you just walk up to in order to fill your soda?  Yep, don't have any of those at all.

Another observation:
I haven't seen a single pickup truck. I always knew that pickup trucks were kind of an American obsession, but it was never as obvious as it is here. Why is it that so many people back home feel the need to have a pickup when the beds of them hardly ever see use?

Coins:
In England, they have way more coins than us, which is super confusing for me. They have:
1 pence
2 pence
5 pence
10 pence
20 pence
50 pence
1 pound
2 pound

So that means that there are no bills smaller than 5 pounds.  Needless to say, I walk around with a ton of "shrapnel," or change.  The bills are actually different sizes based on how much they are worth.  For example, a 20 is bigger than a 10 which is bigger than a 5. they are also different colors.
