Day 2 in London

Today was so fun! I got PLENTY of sleep last night (almost 10 hours)! It's been a busy day though. We started off going to the British Library where we saw a lot of old documents from British History including the Magna Carta, and actual hand written songs from the Beatles!

Then we took the tube and went over to the British Museum. We had an hour or so before we had to meet up with our group so we went and had lunch in a little cafe. After the Museum (which was basically a history of the entire world) free time started so Me, Zack, Buford, Jessica, Eric, Errin, and Jeff all headed off to southbank where we saw the London Eye (We haven't rode it yet but we will tomorrow), went on a river cruise, went through a free art exhibit that was actually pretty cool and went to an aquarium. We also had dinner in a little pub that seemed to cater to the after work crowd because everyone there was in suits and business clothes.

It has been a great day so far. It's about 20 minutes til nine and we are about to go out and eat AGAIN at a place called Angel Pub. We are celebrating Justins Birthday.

I'm gonna try and put up some pictures really fast before we have to leave.


Just got in a couple hours ago and I've been hanging out in the apartment with friends. We have another long and lovely day planned for tomorrow including a visit to Westminster Abbey, Parliament, some kind of walking tour, SoHo, Liecester Square and a musical yay! Talk to y'all tomorrow!

Ok I just thought this was funny. It was on the menu of the place we ate lunch at.

This is the tower bridge where we got off the river boat at.
