January 7th we flew back to London. We got lucky, because the two British Airlines flights before ours were cancelled because the weather is so bad in London. We landed and decided to take a taxi into the city. We just drove around for awhile and saw all of the sights quickly, because neither Dad nor Jan had ever been to London before. It was funny because our taxi driver was rather new, so he didn’t know wear anything was. I had to find Buckingham Palace for us. We then drove to our airport hotel, first grabbing some massive and delicious fish and chips. Yum!
January 8th. Met Allyson and another girl in the program, Emma, at the airport. Said goodbye to Dad and Jan, and then grabbed a cab into the city. I am now in London sitting in the parlor writing to you all. Moving in was kind of a challenge. My dormitory is on the fifth floor or something. So many difficult stairs! Everyone’s legs are getting an intense workout. We walked a little bit around the neighborhood, but didn’t see much, or really go anywhere. Everyone is pretty tired and jetlagged. I think I am the only one up still, and it is only 10:30pm! Everyone has been dead all day long, and I have been desperate to get out! Oh well! Tomorrow is a free day, so London… watch out!
