This week has been one heck of a ride! It started off by getting here and having a guided bus tour of London with a fantastic tourguide. She showed us all of the sights and gave us some useful insider tips. We stopped at the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, and Buckingham Palace. These places were amazing! I cannot wait to go back and explore these places on my own again. We then had orientation at FSU. It was a long day full of much-needed information! The next day we met our art history teacher, Lisa, who has lived here for 17 years. She was very helpful, giving us information on how to get to our galleries and what our class would be like. She seems to really love art! She is going to be a fabulous teacher for this class! Afterwards, some of us went and explored the British Museum for a while. There is so much to see that we have to go back again! Good thing so many of the museums in London are free!
The next day we went to Trafalgar Square for our English class. I think it is going to be amazing to get to be on-site for our class topics instead of learning from pictures and slides. What an amazing way to learn about London! After that, I wandered around London with my flatmates. We went to St. James Park and along the Thames River. What a long day of walking that was, but it was well worth it!
Yesterday we went to our first play, The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde. I thought that this play was a great one to start off with. It was funny and had a good plot. This has been a great week, and I am excited to see what else is in store for us in London!
