So i have only been here for only about 5 days but it has seemed like i have been here FOREVER!! I have been able to do so many things while i am here already. The girls here are so nice and all of them are so much fun!
Every day we get up in the morning around 7:30 and eat breakfast. Tommorrow we start classes. But after breakfast our first class is at nine and then the second one is at 11, so we are done with classes by 12! That means that we have the whole rest of the day to ourselves! I cant wait! The food that they serve here is actually pretty good. I do need to go to the grocery store though because all they have to snack on here is bread with jam, penut butter or nutella (yummmy nuttella :) ).
On the second day that we were here we just hopped on the tube and took it to the middle of London. We were walking on this random street and we found this museum called the Clink Prison Museum. It was this place were a bunch of prisons were. They had all these wierd torture things. They made the women wear this thing over their mouth so that they couldn't gossip or complain! haha i thought that was really funny. They had these chastity belts that were really funny too. We also went and saw the Tower Bridges and the Tower of London. It is so beautiful! I love all the arcitecture. We didnt go in the Tower of London because we are going there with the whole group later on in the trip.
On Friday we went to Hyde park and played soccer! It was a lot of fun! After that we came home and got ready for the day and then we went on a walk all around Kensington gardens and saw Kensington Palace! We also walked past royal albert hall. That night after dinner we went to see Big Ben and the parliment and the London Eye. It was so cool at night it was so pretty. Then we also took a little stop at Platform 9 3/4! It was cool to see.
On Saturday we went to this Market that was like an antique market and it was really cool to see. There were so many people there. After that we stopped for some lunch and i had my first Fish and Chips. It basically tasted like fish sticks to me and im not a huge fan of sea food, but i think i need to go to a better place! After that we went and checked out if when we could go to Les Miserables so we headed down to Piccadelle Circus and walked around there. We are going to Les Miserables tomorrow! I am SO excited! I have never seen it before!!! We then went down to Buckingham palace and walked around for a little there. When we came home there were all these protest signs on the ground, literally EVERYWHERE! I guess we live close to the Isralian Embassy so the Pakistans were having a protest close by and that seems to happen a lot around here. 'But i couldnt believe all the trash, it was the dirtest i have seen London, cuz London is such a clean city.
Today we went to church and it was really nice. Tonight we get our ward assignments and our callings so i am really excited for that! Some girls in the other stake already have their callings and they are like Primary teachers, or sunday school teachers, or Young Women's teachers so i am really excited to know what i am going to be!
Well i better go :) Cheers!
