Hey ya'll. So no London Eye or London Tower.

Friday night we ended up gettig sushi in Chinatown. A pint of Haagen-daas kept us all company as we sat in Leicester and Trafalgar square, as we welcomed the evening. Then we headed back to Jenny's dorm and watched the finale of Lost because c'mon, it's Lost.

Yesterday was an early morning as we headed to a local patisserie for pastries and quiche. Then hopped on the tube and headed for Camden Town.... which is by far my favorite place in London. A great open marketplace -- Billy Idol wannabes with studs in every orifice sit on a bridge while you squeeze through between tourists and merchants. Food of every country is represented -- from falafels to Morroccan, Chinese to Brazilian -- all of the vendors screeching "food here! you eat!" and sticking samples in your face if you just LOOK at the table. Postcards, hemp, combat boots, and even real coconuts that are chopped open for you to drink from. An amazing place!!!!!

A double decker bus was still calling our name -- we rode one back to Trafalgar and scored our Avenue Q tickets before treating ourselves to a pint at Chandos and some fresh-made gelato at Scoop.

For FOUR years I have wanted to see Avenue Q -- student rush tickets were available for only £25!!!!! We had box seats right by the stage! What a hilarious show! It was Jenny's second time seeing it actually, and the rest of the night was filled with us singing songs from the show. The perfect way to end our time in London!

Tomorrow we fly out at 4:30pm GMT (10:30am Central time) -- straight to Athens where we check into our hotel on the port.

I will try to write again tomorrow night!

TaTa for now London!!!!
