July 21st

Ok so I have to tell you about the Underground(metro) here. I love the metro here, its so easy to understand, its so very nice. Everytime you get on or off the train an announcer gets on and says, "mind the gap, mind the gap between the train and the platform, mind the gap" over and over, its pretty funny but seriously the gap is pretty big. This morning we went to Sir John Soane Museum. John Soane was a famous architect in the 1800s and he turned his home into a museum to show off all of his relics from all over the world that he had collected over the years. It was really neat he had statues from Italy and an Egyptian sarcophagus, every inch of wall was covered in relics of the past. After the Soane Museum we made our way over the the British Museum of Natural History. It was so cool, they had stuff from all over the world, each continent and culture had their own section in the building, they had real mummies and the rosetta stone which was awesome. I also really enjoyed the African and South American sections. We had like three hours to look around inside until we went to St. Paul's Cathedral where we were able to climb up to the domb where they have the Wispering Gallary. Its so cool! When you wisper against the wall of the domb the sound travels all the way around so we wispered to our friend Amanda who was on the other side of the domb and she could totally hear it! Freaky deaky!! It was so cool, the secerity guy that was there he would show us how to do it and he would say in a british accent "wisper on the wall like this!" He was so cool and such a nice guy. After the Wispering Gallary we headed the rest of the way up to the top of St. Paul's and got awesome views of all of London. Its been a fun day.
