We got up, had breakfast at the hotel's pub. I was suppose to have "American pancakes" but it tasted like crepes. Still good though. Then we walked to Buckingham Palace. We could only take pictures because it's closed for the winter but we were able look around the store. Then we hopped on the original tour again. The guy who loved that we're from New York was there and he offered to meet us at a club that night but we respectfully declined. The Brits sure do love NYC as almost every cashier when they find out I'm American and from New York tells me that they want to visit New York one day or that they've been there and it's their favorite place in the world.
We got a sight of Shakespeare's globe while on the bus and got off at Trafalgar Square. We found this awesome bookstore there, called Waterstone. It reminded me of how much I miss Borders. Then we went back to the hotel to meet with our second cousin on our dad's side. It was great meeting her!
After that we wondered around. We stumbled on Convent Gardens which is a nice shopping area and where the Lion King is playing. I didn't like it that much as it was crowded and reminded me of how creepy Times Square gets late at night.
Tisha talked me into having Indian- not nearly as good as the food I've been having for the last two weeks sadly. Not sure if it's because it's the UK style or what but just not the same. Speaking of which, I really miss Indian coffee.
I love England so far it doesn't disappoint my high expectations of it which I'm happy about. I'd built it up so much in my mind so I'm glad that I like it.
