Well, I finally made it to London! It was much more difficult than I thought trying to find the place we are all living at for two weeks before we move into the BYU London Centre. About eight of us decided we would take the tube together because it was cheaper than taking a taxi. So we all hurled our luggage onto the tube. It was a pretty funny ride because no one talks on the tube, but there always seems to be that crazy person that talks to themselves or sings songs out loud by themselves. This man who sat across from us decided he would randomly sing songs out loud to everyone, and he eventually got a "phone call" and started speaking on his phone in a different language. I'm pretty sure though that no one called him. Anyway, since the tube drivers were on strike, they don't stop at every stop they are supposed to. So of course, out stop is the only one that gets skipped. We get off at the next stop and decide we can walk the rest of the way and it won't be a big deal. Well, of course we get lost and getting lost with a bunch of luggage when it is like 80 degrees outside is not that much fun. We were sweating while trying to pull our luggage (which was mostly uphill) and eventually we realized two people were missing so we had to go send someone to go find them, then we found those two people and the person who was supposed to go find them went missing so that was pretty great haha. But eventually, we found the place and it was such a relief.

Today, for class we went to Hyde Park to see Albert's Memorial. It was huge! Those royals are not very subtle.
On the left is Lorin, me, and Ashley. So far, I have hung out with them the most.
