July 24th
















Today was a free day so we were able to sleep in a bit which was really nice and very much needed. We decided to go to Leicester Square, which is were they have movie premires and such, to buy tickets for the musical Billy Elliot! We were able to get them super cheap and we'll be seeing it tomorrow night, I'm so excited! Its supposed to be really good, its won all these Tony Awards. I've seen the movie and I really liked it so it should be pretty good. After getting the tickets we met up with some of our friends and went to the National Gallery. They had a really cool exhibit there called Carot to Monet. They had a big collection of Western European paintings. It was pretty cool to see paintings that you've seen in your textbooks and then to see it in real life, I'm very grateful and lucky to be here. After the National Gallery we went to the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner, its the origional Hard Rock Cafe which is super sweet. They had a ton of Beatles memorbilia, like there clothes and Paul McCartney's fiddle, and I just love the atmosphere, its so fun. Its been a pretty fun day. Can't wait for tomorrow.
