Sorry for not posting yesterday, but it was a busy day. After buying our AMAZING Wicked tickets at 10, I decided to wander around before Art History. I went to Westminster Abbey.. and I was awed about how gorgeous it was and how much history is in it. Unfortunately, you can't take pictures inside, but it was great. I went at my own pace and was even allowed to go in a special area that was a Shine for St. Edward the Confessor for prayer that is closed to general tours. All of the monarchs and important writers are buried in the Abbey. It was simply breathtaking. Afterwards, I went to wander some more and then went to Art History. After Art, I went to get a quick bite and then went to see Wicked. I cannot describe how great this musical was. I came to tears several times throughout the show and at the end, I was bawling because I was so blown away. Luckily, Natalie was just as emotional, so I don't feel quite so dumb haha.
Today was a pretty good day, but it included A LOT of walking. We had a walking tour for GST around the docklands and afterwards ate at the Prospect of Whitby historic pub. Then our group went out and completed the Thames walks, so that is relieving. Once I got back, Sam and I booked our plane tickets.. so we are going to Italy! We fly into Rome and fly out of Venice and are planning to see 6 different cities, but we are going to finish the plans after we get back from PARIS! I can't believe I'm leaving for Paris in the morning.. it is still so surreal! But as for my blog, I am not taking my computer or anything, so I will update it on Sunday or Monday. I can't wait!!
