  • The end of the trip + pictures

    Our last night in London ended with dinner in an expensive restaurant in Piccadilly circus, London’s Time Square. After dinner we wandered around a bit, and as we were walking towards a store I noticed something out of the corner of my eye. A neon sign, the kind that messages scroll by on seemed to…

  • Last Two Full Days Overseas

    Yesterday our flight back went well. No delays at all! Ok, so someone REALLY needs to teach the british how to count. The street our hostel is on starts at 87 or something and our hostel is 71 so it sounds like it is really close by, but no. They count down to 80 or…

  • Day 8 – Dublin Day 2

    Today we visited Dublinia, a museum of Dublin’s history. We thought the place was supposed to be a medieval armor/weapon’s museum so we were a little disappointed, but none the less, it was still interesting. Later after lunch at subway (heh, it was cheap and quick and we needed it quick) we went on a…

We did have seats in the very back, but…

  • Day 1&2 London

    Yesterday’s flight went well. We left on-time even early and go to London right on time. the hotel we are at isn’t quite four star, but none the less its still nice. Today we spent the day in London with two of Kat’s friends. We went to the Tate Modern museum, and now are waiting…
