Pretty good day today. I woke up and put the finishing touches on my paper (thanks mom). Now I have a couple days and then I have to start on another, much more difficult one. Then I spent some time trying to make my iphoto recognise dog faces. May not have been the most productive use of my time but who cares? I went to NYU before class to print out my paper. Then I made my way to Tate Britain, where we were going for class today. We went through the 'voyeu...

Productive day today. I got up and did some more editing on my essay (again with help from mom's comments). Then I made some food and did some stuff around the flat before heading to class. Class today was walking around the east end of London then making our way to Greenwich looking at mostly churches the whole time. Greenwich was awesome. We walked through the cute town, past a market and to a church (where else). Then we made our way to the Old Naval Col...

Not a super exciting day today. Stacy and I did extensive research about our trip in December.

We still have to book our lodging, luckily we have a lot to choose from, but at least we have the place decided. Once we had finally come to that decision it was time to take Stacy to the bu...

Long day today. Stacy and I got up and made our way to Portobello Market. We took a different, and apparently more direct, tube line to get there than last time. It was so crowded that the way we went the first time was much better. We walked around and looked at some stuff, only buying crepes and a necklace. Then we made our way to Harrod's for tea. Since we had a lot of time on our hands we decided to walk there instead of taking the tube. Problem with this...

Long crazy day today. Stacy and I went to Buckingham in the morning, hoping to see the changing of the guard before we went inside the palace. We saw some guards changing but there were very few of them and there were no horses or drums or anything. I don't know if it's only big when the Queen is there or what. I will make it to the real thing at least once while I'm here. After that failure we went inside the palace. It was beautiful as always. I was able to a...
