Back in Europe!!

Well, I'm back!

After 8 long months of (questionably) hard work in school, I've made my way back to Europe starting in London, England. I flew out from Toronto last night, after a traditional stop to buy new shoes on the way to the airport (nice shoes I might add), arriving at 10am. I have the usual complaints about not being able to sleep in the upright and locked position, but that didn't stop me from ennjoying a day of "lightning tourism".

First I saw the Tower of London, which houses the Crown Jewels, among other things (like an olde-time armoury). They have everything on display from royal trumpets to the actual crowns, and a staff that is jewelled with the largst diamond in the world, amazing stuff. The two or three rooms probably had almost a hundred million dollars worth in my expert opinion :)

Then before coming to the airport (where I am now), I went to the Globe theatre (hint: Shakespear (probably spelt wrong)) and got atour and saw someactors rehearsing the "Tempest".

I of course wore my backpacks throughout and was bumping into people and knocking over kids, whoops!

Well I hope to hear from everyone, email me addresses if you want a postcard (aka, rub it in your face that you're not here) and I'll post again soon. I'm off to Venice to meet up with Jeff, Pete and Magda!
