You Don't See That Every Day...

Over the past four days, I think I've been able to say that A LOT. Monday, after class, we took a walk around where the Roman wall used to be. You don't get to see things that are 2000 years old every day, for sure! Also, you don't see 4.5 bronze statues of very large mostly naked ladies either, but I could have done without that myself. Tuesday, in addition to my three awesome classes, we went to Harrod's ( A rather pricey department store). We saw lots of pig's heads in the food halls, some highly expensive blingy jewelry, and about four or five different kinds of fur and expensive coats. Wednesday we went to Canterbury and Dover, where I learned all about Becket and the now-not-so-secret secret war tunnels. Also, we got to see the white cliffs of Dover, which are totally breathtaking. Today, I don't have any class, so we went to the Museum of London with six of us. Two broke off, and then the other four of us decided to take the three-or-so hour walk home. On the way, we stopped at Buckingham Palace, where we saw this grown woman relieving herself-right in front of the palace. She was like " I'm quite sorry, but it was either this or wet myself" Okay....

Hey the Gary thing is not to be published in cyberspace. I just dont have time to be social during Fall/Winter, that is what Spring/Summer was for. And the last one was right. And that too.
