This is in the Kensington Gardens. This is where a scene from The Holiday was shot.
Me being silly at the Gardens.
The most beautiful place in the world! Can you see the ginormous tulips!
Me and the queen.
Kensington Palace. So pretty!Tuesday, May 18, 2010

Today was such a fun day! I went to class today and fell asleep three times. I really tried to stay awake, but I was really struggling. I told Cass to hit me everytime, but its not really working. We got to go on a field trip to the other campus and see a plack that Princess Di gave the school when it was first built. She was actually at the opening. How cool is that! After school, me and Cass went to Kensington Palace and also saw Kensington Gardens. It was the prettiest thing that I have ever seen! After that we went into the actual Palace which is under renovations and saw different rooms that were designated for the different princesses. It was kind of cool, but I wish that it was the regular way. It was so cool that I was in the same place that Princess Di lived. After that we went back to the room, had dinner, and then went to the Notting Hill tour. It was kind of a rip considering that it cost 4 punds to walk around and see peoples houses that I didn't know. It lasted like 2 hours and my feet hurt so bad by the end. On the way home I got gilato and it was the best thing that Ive had so far! Now we're in our room watching Sherlock Holmes, which is filmed in London!! We actually have been on one of the streets that it was shot on. How cool is that?

PIcs from Park on 5-17
The Princess Diana Memorial fountain. It is so cool. Little kids can swim in it and play. I was so jealous-it looked like so much fun!!
O typical London telephone booth.
A sign post in the park. We definately needed a lot of those. Needless to say we got lost for about an hour.
Peter Pan Statue!! Amazing.
Me, Cass, and Peter!Monday, May 17
Today was the first day of class. It's Marketing so it is definately not a fun one. I actually don't think it will be too bad. My teacher is really funny and he took us to go get Coffee at his favorite shop. It think we might get to take a coffee break everyday. One of the girls in my class, Cass, and I went to Kensington Park today and saw the Peter Pan Statue. It was different than I remember it in the movies, but still very cool to be there. It was so intricately made and so neat! Iknow Dee will want a picture for sure! I am feeling really tired today. I stayed up really late last night because we found a massive spider on our wall and then we were laughing so hard that I couldnt sleep for a while. This morning construction workers were making terrible noises at 7 and I couldnt sleep at all! I think I'm gunna chill out for the rest of my night in the room.

It's official. London is the most beautiful place that I have ever been. I feel like such a dork because I am so in awe of all of the details in the buildings and monuments around the city. We went to Kinsington/Hyde Park today. The trees and flowers were so pretty. We saw a monument that was built in Prince Albert's memory. It was so incredible and I am not going to lie, I was jealous that I will never have something like that made for me. :) I am way tired and I am off to bed!
