this past weekend i went to england to visit Emma!! For those who don't know, Emma was my first au pair (nanny) when i was little. I flew in Friday morning (SO EARLY) and hung out with Emma all morning. It took forever for me to find her at the airport because we were in two different places but thought we were in the same one. Then we picked the kids up at school, which was super exciting. That night we had the classic British fish and chips for dinner. SO YUMMY.
Saturday we ventured into London. We took the tube into the city and walked all around. We saw the London Eye, Big Ben, went to the Tate Art Museum of Modern Art, saw some skateboarders, etc. Caitlin and Ollie rode around London on their scooters all day, zooming around. We then took the Underground to Leicester Square and walked to the M&M Store and down to Covent Square for dinner. On the way I RANDOMLY ran into a girl in my sorority from WashU who's studying abroad there! Such a small world. Actually. And we went to this American restaurant for dinner and had the BEST tomato soup and veggie burger for dinner. NO HAM!!!!
Sunday it unusually snowed like 3-4 inches and it was crazy! Everyone was soo excited about the snow, when it was like nothing for me. But we managed to slowly drive to the airport and even though my flight was delayed an hour and a half, I finally made it home! In time for the (depressing) superbowl.
I would chat about the superbowl and how fun the night was, but today I am deeply depressed and i'm trying to repress those memories.
