Most weeks I get out of work around 6pm so that doesn't leave much time to be a tourist here in London. On the weekends is when I get to go explore. This weekend Kelsi and I went to Kensington Palace and looked around Kensington gardens and Hyde park. It was a beautiful day out and we enjoyed walking all around the park enjoying the scenery. We both wished we had roller blades so we could skate along with all the other bladers! On Friday night we were so tired so we stayed in our flat, drank tea, and of course watched the Tudors. :)
Saturday was a blast as well. We took a boat tour down the Thames river to Greenwich. It was a great way to spend the day because the weather was amazing and we haven't had that nice of weather in a long time! I loved spending it all outside. We got to see some great homes on the river as well. A lot of Greenwich was built by Henry VIII which is the main character in the Tudors so thats fun to watch the show and then see it in real life! We also went to the prime meridian. It was really neat to be in the West and East at the same time. Saturday night we went over to the UK Beerfest but we missed it so we went on a pub crawl with some new friends we met so that was fun.

Of course we all had to go to the market on Sunday. Camden market has to be the best market in the entire world. It also has to be the largest...its HUGE...many many miles. Its a great way to spend a Sunday and I am going to miss it sooooooo much! Anyone who comes to London must go to the Camden Market! just a little FYI
My roomies are leaving tomorrow! Its going to be really really sad! :( Im going to miss them a whole bunch. They have really taught me some great things and helped me grow even more as a person. They have showed me a different way to look at life and my surroundings- that you don't always need a plan and sometimes you just have to go with the flow. I have realized that some of the best moments aren't the days that are planned out to the 't' or the days where you expect too much but they are the days that are simple, enjoyed with good company, a good book, great scenery and a large cup of cream tea. :)
Some of my best memories of London are sitting late into the night with Kate... on our small, hard, magenta couches, looking out at the sunset from our flat, enjoying a nice cup of cream tea, and chatting about lifes greatest mysteries. Its those little things I have learned to love.
Cheers!
