Yesterday was a landmark day. I'll get to that.
First thing that morning was going on one of the walks. It was fun to go out on a bright and crisp Saturday morning with fewer people out. I think this was probably my favorite of the walks. The buildings were so cool.
After the walks I headed to Portobello Road Market. If you've seen Bedknobs and Broomsticks, you've heard of it. There were no beds or singing, but there was a lot of everything there. I bought the biggest donut I've ever seen in my life. We hung out there until it started raining hard enough that we got tired of it. We headed back, went and got lunch, and then I went shopping so I can eat some real food for lunches. Actually, so I could actually eat lunches. I went shopping by myself though, and the amazing this is, I didn't get lost on the way back! Hooray! I was too tired to do anything else so I Skyped with my family, did homework for the rest of the day than finished everything up with movie night in the classroom.

Also today I went to church and met the Young Women I'll be teaching for the next four months in the Stratford Ward. They are a very lively bunch. After church I finally made it to Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens. Beautiful.
Sorry for the lots of pictures and little to read. I'm exhausted.
