my first visitor!

my friend katie from chapman is studying in perugia this semester and decided to take a trip to visit in london last weekend! and she brought perugian chocolate with her...my new favorite thing ever.

the first day we did some of the typical sightseeing...buckingham palace (yeah, again, ok? i like it!), green park, trafalger square, piccadilly circus, and some things i had never seen before and still don't know the names to!

[us at the queen's house]

[ah!]

[my turn!]

[i don't know what this is...but it's pretty!]

[again, a nameless landmark i probably should know]

after exploring for a few hours, we had dinner with sabrina and her friend at the eagle so katie could try some traditional english food! i had a veggie burger and sabrina had nachos...we're obviously kind of over the whole english food thing. and we are also vegetarians. no bangers and mash for us.

on saturday we went to hampstead to eat and shop a little and then to oxford circus to eat and shop a LOT. after some good japanese food and the best cookie i've ever had (i think ben's cookies deserves its own post someday), we went to this place called the arc near thoresby house with some kids from the program for romanian night! we danced to romanian music and laughed a lot until it was bedtime.

i loved having a visitor...it was nice having yet another person from home to hang out with! it's a good thing i like guests because i have a lot of them coming up!
