The times square of London
So today started out with your traditional English breakfast, which consists of grease, grease and more grease. How all of england is not one big ball of fat people will never understand. I ended up eating only the hashbrowns which were tasty but extremely greasy. After breakfast we had MSU orientation which infomed us to watch our drinking and not to be easy Americans. You know, the usual. After that we all went and took a nap because we were exhausted from the pub last night and getting up so early this morning. At around 4pm we all went to Professor Bossen's flat for dinner and a quick meeting about classes and what not. The dinner was soooo good. None of us had had like a real good meal since we got here. I mean the fish and chips were good but still greasy. Professor Bossen and Mrs. B had made us like a cheese platter, meat platter, pates, breads and dips and brownies and strawberries for dessert. It was tasty! After coming back from dinner we decided to split into groups and go out. B-town, Christina, Bryna, Ellen and I all rode the underground to piccadilly circus (their equivalent

to our times square). It was amazing. It was a shame it was raining but it was so fun. We got a picture with these random guys and walked around for a bit. We actually ended up at the Royal Academy of the Art where they were doing a summer exhibitation. Some gent told us it was free so we went in and the guy at the door told us it was 7 pounds. We were just like oh okay well we found this place on accident we didnt know it cost money and he was like go ahead go on in. We couldnt believe he let us in for free! It was amazing, I was flabbergasted, the art was incredible and there was so much of it. I cant believe how lucky we were to get in there for free, it was one of the best experiences I have had so far. Thank goodness we decided to go to piccadilly circus because we almost didnt go because it was raining. Tomorrow class begins and it should be a good time. Let you know how it goes.
