Day 12

Today I had a visitor! My friend Michael had a 20 hour layover here so he came to hang out for the day. So after class I took the tube to the airport to pick him up. We came back to campus and ate lunch in the bar downstairs before heading off to the Tower of London with Josh. We spent the afternoon there which was a lot of fun and really cool to see. We went shopping with Meggan after the tour and I got two dresses from H&M and shoes from Top Shop. We ate dinner at giraffe, which was really good, it's got a really eclectic menu with stuff from all over. After dinner we came back to change and wandered the streets for a bit with other BGBers before heading to Oxygen in Leicester square. At the bar we met some really cool girls from Manchester who had come to town to see Legally Blonde.
