Well this is the backdrop to St.Pauls off the bridge to the Global theater. If you dont know what it is then go stick your head in the toilet ignorantus!I went on a school trip with my 17 year-olds to London. It was my first time and I really enjoyed it! London is spacious, big and clean. Which is quite surprising. Full of many ethnicities and races yet it seemed everyone was equal. (which is nice and yet surreal) It wasn't really a sight-seeing trip as it was for schooling. We saw very few places and when we did see them it was
too quick to enjoy them.I mostly had to make sure the monkeys went to sleep IN their own rooms and woke them up in time for school. We studied shakespeare and the historical background that followed. We were only all together in the morning for school, at night and if there was a day activity. If not they disappeared to go shopping. Shopping is actually fun there, its alot less expensive than Italy.
I was going to buy Ely a 100 dollar Burberry shirt. It's a famous English brand name. I was indecisive so I ended up buying her homemade butterscotch fudge. She told me that I did the better thing and that if I had bought her that shirt "she would have lorena bobbited me!" Everyone had been to London several times except for me. So I was a little more excited than the students to see places.
We saw the play in the Duke of York's theatre, The Twelfth Night by Shakespeare. It is an entertaining comedy with some love drama. It reminded me of a funny version of a modern day soap opera with a crazy love triangle. "if music is a fool, play on!"
We also went to his home town, Stratfort-upon-Avon. It was a little quaint village two hours outsite London. We saw where he lived , where he was baptized and died. We actually walked in his house. Talk about going back into time. We stopped at a pub to eat and drink near his house. The pub was older than 400 years. Older than our own country pretty amazing , I think. Over all in London the days and nights were freezing. It rained and snowed preventing us from doing more things. It was a total of five nights and six days.
Prof. Caligari and Myself enjoying good brew. Long live cider
The subway station is much more advanced than that of Milano and the double decker buses were great. There were hundreds of them filling the cold streets of London. The hangout was Piccadilly Circus. When I spoke to people I had no idea what they were saying. (didn't English spawn from this island?) They did have Pizza Hut, Subways, Starbucks and Doritos. can you say hea
hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!
On the last day I saw Big Ben and the Westminister Abbey. The statue of Richard the Lionheart was in front.
The hotel was nice but the food was borderline prison food. My room was tiny ( like kyle's neurons) without WiFi. I brough my little net book to chat with the family but there was no way I was going to pay. The only hotel in the world without WiFi. Even Tijuana, Mexico where I got my degree in Manly Sexiness has WiFi. Five pounds an hour? I can tell you where to stick it too...
On the way out we had to travel through East London. It was pretty Ghetto. it reminded me of Hemet (ahahahahhahah)
My feet were blistered and I missed sleeping and other things that I cannot mention :) But all is well that finishes well. We made it back home in one piece. My kids that I went with are a good group of kids so I had a good time with them. This was the first time I was so far away from my family. I got lots of chocolate hmmmmmmm and some gifts for the kids to make up for the time I was gone. It burdened me some but time flies and now I'm already back home smacking up my little monsters.
Globe theater where Shakespeare wrote his plays. Don't be hating!Can you find me in this pic?I think I the best part were the pubs and the good brew.
God Save the Queen!
or it. What is important is that I'll be super sexy by July to embarrass Kyle infront of the family again!
