And then we were off to the London University Students club (or at least what it was the equivalent of really) it was a really . . . interesting place. Very colege-y. I thought it was nice though. I am most exited that they offer things like Kung Fu and Sailing, supposedly, because that would be cool. They also offer concerts, food, and parties as well as a gym (for a small extra fee). It's a privilege to have membership to this place though and hopefully, I'll be able to meet students there.
After that, we did lunch. Well, sort of. I had already bought a chicken salad sandwich, but I joined the others at this place that specialized in chicken and just ordered a drink. It was a decent lunch. Not much eventful happening.
After that we walked with our director around London. Mostly we just walked, but every once in a while he would point out something of interest and we rode in those huge red buses a few times.
We also went to the British Museum, for about Twenty minutes which was fun. We saw things like the Rosetta Stone, for example.
There were also some really great tablets with early forms of writing on them as well. They seemed like something Mom would like.
One of the really cool things is that there is a lot of history and basically everything cool or hip starts in this city, which is pretty amazing. I'd be really interested in writing on the literary history of this place, honestly. But then, who wouldn't? There are also so many theatre shows and musicals advertised. Personally, I'd love to go see Wicked or Mamma Mia, but we're going to see a lot shows so hopefully I don't get sick of them by then.
That's all for now --
Hopefully tomorrow will be even more exciting and fun!

Wonderful! I am reading all the blogs you have written lately, "cause I missed quite a few.I am loving this.
ReplyDeleteCool! But only twenty minutes at the British Museum?!
ReplyDeleteI guess this is a "taster" tour, where you get to see all of the cool things that are in London so you can go back later and explore more deeply. How exciting!
