I don't really have all the time nor energy to tell everything I've done since I've been on London (class is in an hour and well, I only have so much time left of what I've bought).
I've not seen the Tower yet, nor gone on the Eye because those are, alas, expensive and I am a poor American College Student.
I have seen 3 Shakespearean plays, one was The Tempest, which I saw in the Globe as I was a Groundling. Very, very, very good play. And, you know, two cute actors.
I've been to the National Theatre to see the play the U.N. Inspector.
Went to the British Museum and fell in Love.
Hyde Park is very beautiful but easy to get lost in. I took about 20 pictures of the Albert Memorial.
Despite the bombings I still prefer the Underground to the Bus.
If you ever have the chance to take a boat ride on the Thames, do it.
Oxford St. can be insane, but has cute plus sized clothes in one store!
Portobello Road, packed and cramped, but amazing deals can be wrought.
I've yet to go to Harrods but will be going there soon.
And, that's all I can remember right now, I've done quite a lot!
Everyone who asked for a post card, they got sent out yesterday. Hopefully they will get to their destinations, but, mail is, alas, mail.
If anyone does still want a postcard, just let me know before the 28th of July!
Okay, have to go now! And if this is full of mass typos I do apologize!
