London- Much was conquered, much sleep was not had.
After arriving at the hostel and meeting skips we seized the day and ate cherries and WINEGUMS!! We took London by storm although the clear lack of sleep was quite obvious for most onlookers. We saw Big Ben, Westminster, the Globe (we are going to see Macbeth when we return), the national library (where we got to view the Magna Carta), Trafalgar Square, Buckingham Palace (which was a huge let down and I decided that the Queen would be better off having a big flashy sign like in Vegas or LA which gleamed The Queen Lives Here with a large Arrow...just a suggestion). We then wandered into a pub and drank strongbow on draft!!! YUM! However, as much as we wanted to tackle the second drink the severe sleep-deprivation was clear in the fact that there is no photographic evidence of our eyes without large black bags! So we ventured back to the hostel knowing of the impending 3:30am wake up!!
We waited for a bus at 4am, battled a grumpy pants driver, ate gummy bears, waited in a long line to check our bags, walked through the longest airport known to man...However, do da dooooooooo had an on-time arrival in BOLOGNA, ITALY!!!More to come soon!
