Day 22- Day 23

Hello All!

Friday Chris and I went to Stonehenge and Bath. We almost didn't make our bus and literally had to make a run for it. We got there safe and sound though. Stonehenge was our first stop. Now in my head I thought of these towering rocks that were like 40 ft high and that you would be able to climb up them and walk around them and stuff. I also though it would be on a flat field. But I was really wrong. Stonehenge lies 6 feet from the highway on top of rolling hills. It is not big at all. The circle was not that large and the stones were kinda small too. A circle around the rocks was roped off and you could not get closer than 50 ft. And it was raining. And I was in a dress. I think I would have liked it more if I didnt have such expectations in my head.

We also went to Bath. I LOVE BATH. It houses the only Roman Bath house still standing in the World. Yup, not even in Rome. The town there was soooooo pretty and nice. Its the most expensive town in The UK to live. And they had a Sally Beauty Supply, so I was in heaven. Bath was very pretty. Just look at the Pictures.

When we got home we ate dinner then heard that the Killers were having a concert in Hyde Park. We packed up a blanket and some wine and marched down there just as they ended their set! UGH. So we all just hung out in the park and talked and drank and looked at the sun set/stars. It was really nice.

Saturday- We woke up early and tried to go to Breakfast. Nothing was open so we settled for McDonalds. After breakfast we went to the market and shopped. I then took Chris to the airport and said a sad goodbye then came home. I napped and did laundry. I Just ate left overs for dinner and plan to just hang out tonight,

Pictures will follow.

Day 21

I had class till 1, but Chris did some exploring. He went to the changing of the guard, St Pauls, and the tower of London.

When I got out of school we went to Harrods, a big expensive department store. We ate a really really good roasted chicken with veggies. I also got cupcakes and a dog toy for my girl. 

That night we went to see Transformers, which was pretty good. I'm iffy about it but everyone else liked it.

Day 15- Day 20

Hello All! 

Chris arrived just in time to catch another flight. Off we went to Paris! Our hotel was wonderful, the food was great, and my only real complaint was the people and cleanliness.  We saw all of the big sights like Larc de Triomphe, Notre Dame, The Eiffle Tower, and the Pyramids at the louvre.

The second day we took a train an hour out of Paris to see Versailles. We walked all the way to the gates and got stopped. It was closed for the day for the President to see it. We got lunch and went back to Paris. We shopped and eat again to kill time. We ended up going back to the Notre Dame and going to the top of the bell towers.

We then caught the train and flew home to London.

On Tuesday I had class and let Chris go off on his own his first day in London. After class we meet up and went to Oxford Street to shop. That night we went out to the Ice Bar and had a really good time. We then went to 2 other bars and hung out before going home for the night.

Today (Wednesday) We saw the big sights in London. We went on the London Eye, We saw big Ben, We sat in on session in the commons in Parliament. We also saw Westminster Abby, and Buckingham Palace. We're home now to nap and rest up. Then maybe a picnic in the Park? The weather is wonderful today.

Pictures will follow!

Day 15- today

I have not forgotten, will update soon!

Day 13 and Day 14

Day 13:

I woke up bright and early and went to school. It was a really pretty day out. I went to class and finished my first tutorial. I even got to start on my second one. I walked home at 1. I stopped at some shops on my way home and bought some shirts and a really nice skirt. When I got back to my flat I ate lunch and meet up with Kelli and Sarah. We got coffee and went shopping some more.  We went to dinner at the cutest place on earth called Camden Kitchen. Then we went back and hung out. Later we went out to South Kingsington Bars. 

Day 14: I woke up to a strange man in my kitchen, talking on a cell phone. All of my roommates were gone (away for the weekend). I was alone with man. He turned out to be a maintenance worker. It scared the poop out of me. I swore I was in Taken. Why would maintenance have a key, and not even knock.  I emailed my RA to ask about knocking policies. I spent the day in. I cleaned our whole flat. I washed dishes, picked up. I packed for France tomorrow. I went out and food shopped so Chris has things to eat. Now I'm home again. I think I'm going to nap and read.

I made Pimms and Lemonade. It is a very classic London Summer Drink that is british Lemonade (Carbonated). Half bottle of Pimms brand alcohol, and mixed fruit. I put in sliced apples, oranges, limes, mandarins and strawberries. Then you just add ice and enjoy. 

I want a picnic.
