London- Views from my room... I am not certain of the population but 8 million sounds about right. The city goes on for a long time in all directions with both the underground, trains, buses... I find it unnerving how far down the underground lines are and how steep the escalators can be. I thought it was brilliant to use them during the war for air raid shelters until someone told me bombs would come bouncing down the stairs and explode when they hit a level. Wouldn't that be a piece of bad luck!
