Mind the Gap!

We have finally settled in - only to be leaving tonight! You know, I was fairly overwhelmed with this city at first, and even considered that this year might take much longer than expected. Except that after today I love it already.

We spent the entirety of the afternoon yesterday napping..uhh, haha. And found a nice grocery store where we have been buying excessive amounts of fresh produce and good food - for so cheap! We woke up early this morning and ate breakfast in the hostel, amongst our 19 roomates - yes, nineteen! Even the washrooms are unisex, the showers are not, don't worry! We hopped on the tube to the Wellington Arch and took a two hour tour of the royal part of London - including watching changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace, seeing the parliament, Big Ben, the London Eye and Westminister Abbey.

Tonight we catch the tube around ten or so to the train station, where we catch a train to the airport and then wait around until 4am when we can check our baggage for our flight to Greece.
We will probably be napping tomorrow afternoon, as well.

Hope all is well!
