London Baby

Hey everyone!! This has been my second full day in Lodon, and it has been great so far! Already saw my first play, Chicago, and it was fantastic! Dez, you would have loved it, it was the old school version! Brandon and I are already masters of the tube station. We hardly even look up at the signs already. I'm gonna go tomorrow and buy a week long pass instead of paying for a day at a time like we've been doing, it's cheaper that way by about one or two pounds a day. So yeah. We're hanging out with two of my dorm mates, Sam andMegan, both girls, both from Grand Prairie. They're pretty cool, Megan plays crib, and they both know card games. They'll be here about as long as Brandon, so that'll be fun. We're going with them out to Stone Henge and to the Lodon Dungeon in the next couple of days. Oh!! And Brandon and I did get tickets to go see STOMP, that's on sunday. Gonna be a blast. Got some great pics from the London Eye, and just been wandering around the city a lot. Gonna have to send Brandon something when I get home, he keeps buying me food and stuff, won't let me pay, so I'll have to get him a big thank you of some kind. I already got touristy items for some people, Dez and possibly Grandma. Oh, and the only other dorm mate I've met is a guy named Wade from New Zealand. He seems pretty cool too. He originally came here to work for the summer, but now his plans have changed and he'll be travelling around Europe with a bus pass. The two French speaking dorm mates i haven't met, but heard them talking when they came in last night. Other than that, not much to tell so far. It's just nice, got all the time in the world to get around and do stuff. On the tour to Stone Henge I'm gonna get to see the place where Harry Potter 1 and Pride and Prejudice were filmed!! Woo hooo!!

Anyways, love and miss you all, but it's off to bed for me!
