Hello from London

I am in europe! Wow. I can't believe it. I got here about 10 hours ago, and I am about to go to sleep, but I just wanted to say that I am here and having fun. I took so many pictures today, but I don't have time to upload them. Maybe tomorrow. We went out walking and ended up crossing the Thames and going to Westminster Abbey and the palace. We didn't pay to get in, so mostly I have pictures of the outside of these things. Fun walk though. Its crazy how many tourists are out and about, and how touristy everything is. I have pictures of that too.

One of my favorite things so far-- piccadilly circus. Not that its my favorite place, but the fact that its called a circus. you see, its actually a little bit like a mini times square-- lots of ads, neon lights and people. And LOTS of american influence. Anyhow, I jus think its great that its called a circus, even if that means somethign different to the UK.

Well, I am almost out of time and about to fall asleep while typing, so I am going to go now. I will try to update about my travels regularly, so keep checking back.

well, goodnight!
