Yesterday everyone else was in the religion class so right after lunch I headed out on my own. I wasn't quite sure where I was going. I always get a little nervous when I go out on my own but as soon as I stepped down the front steps I started to smile. It feels good to go out and do things in London by myself, away from the pressure of constantly being surrounded by people. I went to the Natural History Museum and looked at rocks and dinosaurs. I was a happy girl. I had a great conversation with an elderly lady about gemstones. There was also a group of about fifteen people in wheelchairs so I stopped and hung out with them for a while.
I've made a list of all the places I haven't been yet that I want to go to or places that I've only been once and need to get to again. It's kind of a long list but because of that I know I'll stick to it better because I really don't have that much time left.
At dinner we were given apple pie as dessert. One girl, Caity, decided to try to shove a huge bit of pie in her mouth all at one time. One of the professors apparently used to eat a medium Frosty in one gulp and things like that so he had to take her on. With us cheering excitedly in the background, he put almost a full slice in all at once. I love how in this picture you can see his wife rolling her eyes a bit in the background. I was not expecting that at dinner.
