The first two days of my study abroad experience were spent in London, England. I had already been to this wonderful city when I was a freshman in high school but it was nice to be back on my own! We arrived to our hotel around 10 am and when we got to there the rooms were not ready so we couldn't even freshen up.
Emily and I walked around London along the river and had lunch at a cute Greek place. After lunch we walked across the Tower Bridge and back to the hotel. After a shower and nap, we meet a few of the other students. For dinner we ate at a restaurant along the Thames, since it was beautiful outside. We also went on the Eye.
The following day we went on a 4 hour bus tour of the city. Emily and I were able to snag the very first row of seats on the second floor of the bus, which was awesome because we had a huge window in front of us and on the side. Well a bus tour doesn't sound ideal, it was a great way to see as much of the city as possible with the short amount of time that we had. We also had time to get out of the bus and explore on our own for a little bit. That night a group went to a pub by our hotel and chowed down on fish and chips and a pint!
