The Bank of England

Yesterday wasn't particularly exciting. I woke up and did homework for a while after a super long shower while everyone was off shopping. Then Kaitlin and I went to Cafe Diana and had pitas that were amazing! It was the first meal in a long time where I've felt extremely full at the end! SOO GOOD! 

Then we had history for about an hour. Then we were off! Off to the Bank of England Museum. We (Diana, Kaitlin, Dillon, Koryl and I) were going for extra credit in history. Honestly, the most exciting part was when Diana took some directions a little too literally and walked into a utilities closet! haha! Even the security guards were laughing! Love that girl! 

We were there for about an hour. Nothing too interesting, to be honest. Just some stuff about finances that I don't really understand. haha

Then we had to book it home for Culture Class where we turned everything in so that we are officially done with that class. BUT then, Schuler decided to tell us just how we were supposed to do our assignments... weird that he did that the day they were all due.... something seems wrong... 

Then we had dinner and Kaitlin and I did another walk around White Hall. Whoever wrote our "walks" book does not know the difference between right and left. We get soo confused every time we do one! Thankfully that was the last one! We saw some cool statues and houses and had our own little adventure. My favorite part of that evening is something that I can't post online haha! 

We came home and everyone was up in the classroom ready to watch a movie for history extra credit. Weirdest movie of my life! I can't remember what it was called, but it sure was crazy weird. 

Today: catch up day and Churchill Museum. We were supposed to go to Dover, but they made that trip optional and since they changed it to mostly Cantebury and we most likely weren't going to see the cliffs, I opted out. They're just seeing a castle and being set lose for a little while. I don't think I'll miss out on too much... but I guess we'll find out! haha! 

Love you all! I can't believe how fast this has gone by, but at the same time it feels like I've been here forever! I love London and can't wait to get back because I will come back someday I promise!

See you all soon! 11 days!
