Loving London

Well it's been almost a week that I've been in London now and I have already done and seen so much!  Thursday night a big group of us went to the musical Wicked, and it was absolutely incredible.  I was blown away by the singing, all of the costumes and scene changes, and I was so glad that I was able to experience it in London!  Last night we all went on a boat party on the Thames River with a bar and DJ on board.  We were on the boat for about 4 hours and saw all of the great sites lit up like the London Eye, Big Ben, and the Houses of Parliament.  It was a very fun Friday night! :)  Today we toured Westminster Abbey and had our very own guide to tell us all about the different tombs and memorials inside, as well as the details about Kate and William's Royal Wedding that took place there on April 29th of last year.  After our tour Hannah and I went off on our own to explore the city of London!  We walked all over and found the cutest little shops and restaurants.  We had lunch at a cute cafe and had gelato for the first time.  It was a great way to spend our Saturday afternoon before classes start.  



Boat Party!
