Vertigo

Every time I travel, I seem to end up climbing up stuff.

That seems to be the fate of all tourists. To see something tall and then feel compelled to reach the top for a "better view".

It's a bizarre compulsion that never seems to arise when I'm at home, only when I'm somewhere outside of home.

In London, I found myself staring at the Monument to the Great Fire of London.
Clearly, I had to climb this.
Even though I was feeling shaky in the legs as I ascended the steps, the view was nice enough.
