I can't believe our time in London is almost over!
We travel to Paris tomorrow. I'm pretty excited about that. We leave really early and then get to our hotel then go to the Eiffel Tower. That's going to be a lot of steps just like St. Paul's Cathedral! :)
Yesterday Jessica Neeley, Brandi Green, Lindsey Martin and I went all across London by ourselves. We navigated the tube and found the places we wanted to go. It was a pretty cool experience to get to travel around the big city without the entire group. We felt like independent women. ;) There is this store Primark that is like a huge Forever 21. We got a lot of cool clothing. We also went to Harrod's. Which is this huge famous department store like place. It is ridiculous, really. Everything is so expensive but it is gorgeous. There was a whole room full of just chocolate displays and another with just pet toys.
Today we went to do laundry before we leave tomorrow. That was an experience. It cost nine pounds just to do one load of laundry, that is about $15. Luckily a few of us combined our loads of laundry so it wasn't as expensive. After we did laundry we went to a Hyde park to talk about poetry. We read sonnets by Shakespeare and Wordsworth. One was entitled London, 1802. That was pretty neat to read considering we are in London.
Hopefully we will have internet in Paris, but if not this will be my last post until we get back to the US.
