Last Saturday we traveled into London! We met up with Marla's friend, Danny (not pictured), and he walked us around all the hot spots of London tourism. It was strange coming from the suburbs (Oxford) to the big city - haha everything felt so crowded! Our first stop was Regent Street where we did a little window shopping (definitely could not afford to buy anything with the pound equalling about 1.6 dollars). We stopped at a bar called the Living Room and they had the best bloody marys of our lives...made with basil and a bunch of other secret ingredients. AMAZING! Next we stopped at the famous Trafalgar Square. You can barely tell since most of the pillar is out of the picture but you get the idea.
I took a picture of the taxi only because it reminded me of being 17 in London with my field hockey team. On the last night of our Eurotour we snuck out to the clubs in a taxi just like this. Jess - wasn't that a blast! ....Oh and Mom - we took every safety precaution possible back then i promise :)
The last is our friend Mike mingling (showing off his muscles) to a local brit. She actually had all her teeth, imagine that! A great night in London for sure. We had our fun saturday and then it was back to the grind. This week has been loads of research, multiple papers, harry potter lunches, and formal high table dinners...Until the next weekend...
