Lets see...in the last four days I started classes, which is the boring the part. But mainly we spent the end of the week enjoying pubs and clubs around the city at night and sightseeing during the day. On Friday, we went to the Natural History Museum and Science Museum mainly because they are right across the street from our flat and free so we couldn't not go. I went for my first run in Hyde Park which is about a ten minute walk from the flat. The park is huge but I only explored a small part. It was crazy to be running and have a the huge gold gilded stature of Prince Albert on your right and the extravagant Royal Albert Hall on your left. My goal is to explore a different part of the park on each run. I want to go down by the water of the Serpentine and see Kensington Palace and gardens. The park is refreshing and there are people picnicking, playing football, biking, and lounging. Today, we went over to Westminster and took a tour of the Palace of Westminster aka Parliament and took pictures in front of Big Ben and Westminster Abby. I am a bit burned out now and it's time to catch up on sleep, but it was a great week. :)

One Week Come and Gone
