Thursday 20 August

Didn't get heaps of good sleep. There was no one in the room when we got there but it was obvious two girls had the other beds. They came in some time in the night or morning. It's about 10 by the time I get up. Malcolm is just having breakfast and we go off to find an Internet cafe to print off some documents. We print our documents and head to the Mongolian consulate. We are 8min too late for the visa office. We talk to the man at the office who tells us of their website and visa application forms. We next head to the Chinese embassy, which is also closed. We find the documents online and get them printed at a store. We decide to check out the sites nearby and on the way stop for some food at a diner. We see Big Ben and Parliament House. Plus Westminster Abby. The buildings are so elaborate. And old. I love the houses. The style of them. I think Id like living here. With £ instead of $. Everything costs over 2x in dollars. We head back to the hostel and fill out all the application pages and make sure all is in order. I have a shower and we watch part of a movie. We meet one of our room mates. The other doesn't appear to return all night.
