England:

Considering the amount of time we spent in London (over a week), I did an absolutely horrific job of taking pictures. I had grown tired of carrying my camera around everywhere and so the most of the pictures I did take were on my phone, which has since been lost. Therefore, I only have photos from about two or three of our days in London. I'll try my best to explain the rest of our endeavors in writing but I don't want to bore you so I will be quick about it. But first, here are a few of the photos I do have (Note: I recently went over my 1GB limit for photo uploads. I thought I was given more space but unfortunately now I have to reduce the quality of all the photos. Sorry guys):

This is a restaurant my mom worked at when she used to live in London back in the day. She  asked us to check it out so  we found it our first night in the city.

It turned out to be way, way to fancy for Sigi and I, but we tried to keep it cool despite being very under-dressed.

The Rosetta Stone

This plaque is in reference to the debate over the Parthenon sculptures that I mentioned earlier. I forgot to take pictures of the ones here in the British Museum but between London and Athens we were able to see basically the entire existing collection.

Honestly, I let you down in terms of pictures... Anyway, in addition to visiting the British Museum, we also visited the London Science Museum and the Tate Modern Art Museum which both house incredible collections (not to mention, they are free). Although, the Tate had many pieces that were on the verge of being, in my opinion, completely talent-less, even compared to the pieces we have seen in other modern art museums on the trip. Then again, when did I become the supreme art critic? Sadly, I have no photos to back up my claim (I'll have to grab Sigi's camera at some point and see if he did better than I did).  Aside from visiting museums, we did a ton of walking tours in London, including through Hyde Park, which definitely one-ups Central Park in terms of aesthetics. Let's see what else... ah, we also saw the new Bond movie while in London (two weeks before it was released in the states!) which was cool because most of the scenes were shot between London, Scotland, and Istanbul, all areas which we have been to so far on the trip. Needless to say, we felt like we might as well have been in the movie. I also got to see Jack White and Ty Segall perform live in London which was INSANE. I totally lucked out too because both shows were sold out but I managed to get resale tickets for under face value. Thanks to the internet, I can show you some photos and reviews from the concerts. Click here for Jack White's show and here for Ty Segall's show.

To tell you the truth, without the photos as reference, I'm having trouble thinking of all of the things we did in London. It's late and I'm tired so I think I'll pull the plug on this one. I'll have remembered plenty of stories to share by the time I get home that I can tell in person. I am pretty disappointed and again, sorry, but the good news is that I think the reason I have so few photos from London is that I was having so much fun there. It's an incredibly exciting city with it's own unique architecture, style, and overall vibe. You just feel like a badass walking the streets of London, like you are part of the Beatles or something hahah; I can't explain why. It is absolutely one of my favorite cities so far and without more pictures, I guess I'll have no choice but to come back to refresh my memory of its appeal!
