London Calling!

The next Monday was crazy insane! Everyone was studying. Constantly. And Tuesday was stressful. We had to be done with our test right at 3:30pm so we could make our 3:57 train to the Pisa Airport so we could make our 6:20 gate meet for RyanAir to London Stansted. Luckily, we were on time the entire day. It was perfect. I was thrilled! It was our long weekend and I got to see my dad! That night we got to London and took a bus from Stansted to Victoria Station. We took the tube to Earl's Gate to our hotel. I love the London Tube! We checked into our hotel and went and grabbed some food. By the time we made it back to our hotel G. was almost there! It was so awesome to see my dad! I had been missing my family SO much! It was a great fix! The next day G. had business stuff to do. Anna and I went to the British Museum and had lunch with my friend Carly, who is studying in London. Then we got lost. Which was so much fun! That night Anna was going to see Les Mis with our faculty family who were also in London and I was meeting G. for dinner and a movie! So we went back to our hotel and got ready. We hit the Victoria and Albert Museum before we met up with everyone. It was amazing! That night G. and I went to this amazing burger place and saw The Social Network! I was so excited to finally see it! The next day Anna and I hit up Nottinghill and Portobello Road Markets. Then met G. for lunch at another burger place. I have bee missing cheeseburgers if you can't tell. After that we went to Harrod's and got Krispy Kreme Doughnuts! I was in heaven! Then we hopped on a plane to Dusseldorf Germany. Michael had a show to do there. I unfortunately had an allergic reaction and had to spend the majority of Friday in a German ER. NOT FUN! But thankfully all is good now. Then Saturday morning we headed back to Florence and pretty much chilled the rest of the weekend! All in all it was a great break. I'm so glad I got to see my dad! Best part for sure!
