April 15, 2012


This morning I woke up at about 8:00, and then about 8:45. I woke up with a headache the first time with a headache, but I think it was dehydration so I had a lot of water before heading out. Erin and I head out about 10:30 and head to catch a bus to head to Tate Modern. We caught a bus heading towards London Bridge, but unfortunately it decided to end a couple stops after we got on. So we then got on another bus, which also stopped early. So we walked toward the Thames, saw the Globe (from the outside) and then saw a big building…the Tate Modern.

The Globe Theatre

Modern Art
I have decided I hate modern art. It’s silly. It’s too much amount the attention and not enough about the actual piece of work itself. One of the first pieces I saw was a mirror. I hate that some pieces of modern art I could have done. After the modern art we had lunch at Pret A Manger. I had a surprisingly good sub with brie, tomato and basil, and I also had chips. After lunch we walked to the Globe, decided not to go on, walked to the London Eye, decided not to go on today, and decided to go to Kensington.
Nice shot of Kensington Palace

Queen Victoria piano
Kensington Palace was cool, but weird. Like there was some sort of storyline but it was really confusing and we had no idea how to follow it. One of my favorite parts of it was seeing Princess Diana’s dresses (well, five of them). After the Palace we head back to rain (it started raining) and I had dinner. Then our project team got to work since we have so much fun stuff to do in the next two weeks!
