The Time I Walked Across Abbey Road

It was the last day of free travel—a warm day in May--when I pretended I was a Beatle and walked across the infamous Abbey Road. As far as great people watching places go, Abbey Road is numero uno.

My friend and I sat and watched people try to get the “perfect shot” for about an hour. One guy even took his shoes off—he was serious. Then we were like, “What, were the Beatles not wearing shoes?” Turns out, Paul McCartney was barefoot.

There was also a teenage girl and her mother from the good ole’ southern United States. She was bratty and was like, “Mom this is embarrassing,” and yada yada. She provided a lot of entertainment for us, though.

The things you learn from people watching on Abbey Road.

Now you’re sad because you won’t be in London anytime soon, right? Well, I’m about to make your day. There is a live webcam 24/7 on Abbey Road. It’s awesome.

Thanks for the good times, London!

  1. Haha, this is awesome. I've always thought what it must be like for the locals living around this icon. And I suspect people watching is the best part ;)
