London I’m smiling because the plane is on time! Tick, tock, tick, tock, London’s on the clock! Vancouver bound, featuring the new carpet. The view from my flat. Upper level of a red bus! Great view, and made for fun turns! The OSU Honors College crew! So London… Bustling sidewalks, black cabs, gorgeous flats, & red phone booths. My profile & the Thames’ profile! Wow! Admiring Leicester Square! On the London Eye, with the British Parliament building in the background! Walking around the perimeter of the Tower; the green lawn is where the WWI memorial poppies were located. Mirroring Titania at the British Library. The punter guys wearing white shirts (left and middle) are members of the Cambridge Crew Team and act as docents along the river. The entrance to Trinity College. If you look closely at the statue of Henry VIII, you’ll notice that he’s holding a chair leg in his right hand, the remnants of a prank put on by the student group called The Night Climbers. The Canterbury Cathedral is truly a peaceful place! We were there during the midday prayers, and everyone stood still and quietly, even if they had different personal beliefs. It was beautiful. We loved the adorable china at CafĂ© Bella Maria! Fun fact: the single shot of espresso was mine because I hadn’t been to an ATM in a while and didn’t have enough cash for anything else! Ready to meet the Queen… just kidding! This is the Queen Victoria memorial in front of Buckingham; the building in the bottom corners is the palace. Spotted this in front of a very fancy hotel. Needless to say, many selfies were taken by everyone in the group. Our merry crew just before seeing the play! Horsing around at the National Gallery. King Arthur (Steven) and his Knights of the Round Table (Hexagonal Fountain). Pining for a Pint… There were statues like this all over the courtyard. May I present, their Royal Highnesses, Queen Amira and Queen Jane! Found my sister in Portobello Market! Straddling the two hemispheres at Greenwich! This is now one of my new favorite of Van Gogh’s! The ending blaze! The model of London calmly bobbing on a barge in the Thames. This mural graced the window of a very cute card shop in Soho. We went to Cafe 338 for breakfast; it was adorable and cozy, plus the food was very good! Catch us at Hogwarts for the winter term… Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff! The architecture here never ceases to amaze me… We had our tea and scones with clotted cream, just this once… Pulling into Heathrow Airport just in time for sunrise. I actually enjoyed the lengthy plane ride; it was full of interesting people! Taken by my mom during my 17th hour of sleep upon returning home…
