You're viewing the blog I kept for my month-long study abroad excursion to the United Kingdom, that began on 7 July 2005 and concluded on 8 August. You can find photos and such silly things like that by looking at the archive, or clicking on the subject titles seen on the right-hand side. In the future, I'll probably use this whenever I take a special trip to a new place or whatever.
Cheers!

Well, after a million hours on the plane (and a delayed flight to Dallas), I'm back in good old humid and hot Texas.
I fear my taste buds have changed because my mom got me a cake from Casa Linda Bakery (as a welcome home/birthday thing) and I could barely finish one small piece! It was just TOO sweet.
Or perhaps that's because yesterday I lived off of all the candy I purchased in the airport to get rid of all those pound and 20 p coins. Hahahah could be a combination of both.
Wine gums. Those are weird things.
The last night in London mostly everyone went one last time to the Old Black Lion. It was a sentimental time. As for this blog, I'll probably use it whenever I take big trips again or go cool places....hopefully more often than I have in the past!
Here we are eating lunch in Camden Market for one last time.
a very small portion of the market itself.
Lindsey and I had a whole carriage to ourselves to I took this artsyXcore photo.
Patty was really cool. She goes to MTSU so we might hang out this year.
Liz, Eric, Paul, and me at the Old Black Lion!
Thanks for tuning in, folks.

Well, this is probably my last post from London. It's been amazing- I'll write some thoughtful entry when I get back home that no one reads, thankfully! hahah.
In the meantime, here are some photos of York and Canterbury:

Karen (Liam's sister) and Liz partying it up Texican style.
"A Big Fat Tree"
This lot got me free ice cream!

The magical roundabout?

Okay, well I arrive in Dallas around 9 PM Central Time. Pray that I don't get delayed and miss the flight leaving Detroit......
Oh, and I spent my last day at Camden Market and back to the Imperial War Museum to look at the holocaust exhibit. Now I need to pack!!!
