First full day!

So Last night I went to bed at 8:00pm (3:00 pm OH/IN time) totally exhausted. I woke up at 7 am and it was so sunny and the street was really busy, i thought I had over slept. The bed and breakfast we are staying at has a full english breakfast in the mornings. Which is eggs, toast, stewed tomatoes, mini hot dog things, baked beans and ham that is mostly fat. There is also Cereal similar to rice krispies and special K. There is no ice and everything is about room temperature, which makes milk kinda gross! I ate toast and cereal and had some orange Juice but nothing tastes like home. I don't think anything will beat hot chocolate mixed with coffee, which they bring you your own mini pitcher when you order them. :)
After Breakfast we broke up into our groups, of Art, Theater and Music (i'm art of course:) ) and went on a city tour. From 10 am to 5 pm I was on my feet walking for all but about 40 mins. We went all over London, such a beautiful city. It is very much full of art and different cultures. I took a lot of pictures, bought a purple scarf and water bottle, and got a blister the size of a two pence coin. I have a lot of fun girls in my group who make exploring the city even more fun. We rode the tube today which is the underground train that has a guys voice saying "Mind the gap please" every time the door opens. Everything seems to be said in a nicer way with a british accent. Today I was buying a pepsi on our walk and the guy in front of me got mad because his bottle water cost 1.53 pounds not 1.23. He told the man that is was "bloody robbery!! its actually a bad thing to say but sounded like a compliment.
One of the girls and I went out for supper and compared tour stories tonight. It was fun to relax and of course sit down! ha. Its getting late so I will add more photos tomorrow. We have our first class tomorrow at 10 am.
Thanks for reading, Bre
