more pics to come! look below... i uploaded the other blog & pictures. =)
hello all! today was such a long, but great day! we got up really early to have breakfast, and then we went on a tour to places right outside of london. i honestly don't know what happened, or what the tour guide said for about 45 minutes while we were driving to windsor castle... i fell asleep while we were still in london. first off, did you know the queen still lives in windsor castle? she goes there when she isn't living in her other houses/castles. haha. it was so beautiful! i feel like i keep saying everything is beautiful, but it really is! we went in all of the big rooms, saw all of the crests of every knight since pretty much forever... and we even saw queen mary's doll house. it's a miniature doll house that has real working things, like a vacuum cleaner that really vacuums, running water, and even a sewing machine! all of the pictures were real paintings, everything was so cool. it reminded me of this american girl toy that i pretty much worshiped when i was little. anyways, it was very cool. right outside of windsor castle, we got ice cream and took pictures by the crooked building. it is so slanted! i couldn't believe it... after that, we ate a sandwich on the bus and headed towards the roman baths. Bath is a town with ancient roman baths that the people back then thought would cure any of their problems. the baths are the only hot springs in the uk, and it's mineral water. we drank some for 50 pence, and it was so disgusting. haha, and i don't feel cured of any illnesses. so, i dunno. we will see if it works later i guess. haha. also, i made a wish with a quarter, so i bet it will come true. =) i also so koryl from my freshman year floor! haha! so random to see someone in bath, england! after bath, we went to stonehenge! stonehenge was really in really pretty countryside. it was interesting learning about all about the different theories of how stonehenge came to be. i am not going to lie, the burial mounds all around stonehenge--- totally creepy. basically they just piled people up and put dirt on top of them, and now there are just like lumps all over the countryside. so, yeah... creepy. but i took this black & white & blue picture of it. you like? i think it looks kinda cool. we then drove back to london for about 2 hours. it was a long drive, but a really cool day. definitely worth it in my mind. when we got back into london, we went to harrod's (the department store). it was SO HUGE! all of the clothes were SO expensive. there were shoes that you weren't allowed to touch. there was also a giant cupcake, and i decided i want a cupcake cake pan. yeah? won't that be so cool??? i also decided i want to dress really posh from now on. everyone here dresses really cool. on the way back to the hotel, we stopped at pizza hut! it tasted better here... the crust was better. i dunno, i liked it though... now we are back in the hotel, and i am packing up for FRANCE tomorrow! we leave super early... and i am SO EXCITED! so i had better go to bed! love you all! good night!
