LONDON

Hey everyone!

Well I have been globe-trotting and the fun just never stops! Last week was midterms for me but what a better way to celebrate midterms being over than a weekend trip to LONDON!!! London was such a great city and THEY SPOKE ENGLISH!!! We arrived early in the morning and started our exploring. We are becoming experts at using maps and public transportation (i feel so grown up)!

Our first stop was at Oxford Street aka shopping!! My roommates and I always find time in our weekend trips to shop! This took up most of our afternoon, we stopped for a quick lunch that consisted of the famous FISH AND CHIPS! After lunch we went back to check into our hostel. This time we stayed in a 10 person dorm style room. Well we ended up staying with 7 french guys. They were gross. never again! But this did not stop us from having a good time! We met up with 2 of my ZTA sisters that night for dinner and then went out to a bar! It was so nice to see some other familiar faces!

On Saturday we woke up early and went to sightsee all that we could in the city! We saw the London Eye, Big Ben, Parliament, Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey and the London Tower Bridge! This was amazing and I still cannot believe I am able to see all of these historical monuments at such a young age! I am so lucky and so blessed! Saturday night we went out for an early dinner and then bought tickets to see Grease on broadway. It was such a good show and we had such a blast just roaming the city at night! London was very crowded and reminded me a lot like NYC.

LOVE YOU ALL
