Cheers London!

Getting off the plan was easy and following the signs and a giant crowd to get to the baggage claim was pretty easy.  London’s airport had a transit train that took you to get your luggage.  I have to say London’s airport makes Logan look like a piece of shit…its cleaner for one thing, looks newer, and not as confusing even for a lost child.  All us kids met with the AIFS leaders and seeing some students struggling with their luggage was so funny.  I felt so bad for this little girl who I helped probably 4 times because one suitcase was the size of her and she had two.  She introduced herself as Allie and told me I deserved a metal for helping her so much #tofunny.  It took us about an hour to get to the hotel and OMG saw my first red double-decker bus. 

Was probably the coolest thing I have ever seen.  Next time I go to London I’m riding one and seeing the Tower of London.  We could not check into our rooms till 2pm since the rooms were not ready…poopers since I felt gross and just wanted to shower wash my face of oils and to change my sweatshirt that smelled so bad.  Life Lesson do not cook scrambled eggs with to much vegetable oil at 1am because you will splatter oil on ur sweatshirt and wash it with a dirty sponge that makes it smell bad…Not even a million sprays of the best cologne (Aqua Di Gio) 

could get rid of the remnants of that sponges smell.  It was like smelling 50% of the time Yummie goodness and the other half smelling some nasty shit that made me want to vomit.  Well, luckily or I hope that it was only me that smelled that nasty smell since no one seemed afraid of me haha.  But a few of us kids went out around Kensington and explored the area, which was fun.  We took a lot of cool pics and taking my new camera for a test run.  We looked like tourists for sure.  We ate at a little café place by the hotel.  They had two different prices for all the food.  One price for eating in the café and a price for grab and run.  WOW #INSANE #Cheaplittlecraps JK but not really.  I also learned that Pounds come in coins for dollars.  I paid with 5 pounds for my meal and got 1.30 pounds back and was expecting 30cents and a dollar bill.  Did I look stupid haha #Lifelessons on being a foreigner. 
  I had a nice sandwich that was almost like Panera and had a vanilla frappe.  During lunch I also got a bag of chips…little did I know I ate one of the girls chips we were hanging with, thinking they were mine.  I guess she hinted that she was hungry and that she was hoping that her coffee latte would fill up again.  After I ate I was like wow that was good and filling…then moving I felt a bag of chips come out of my jacket and realized I took her bag of chips…Feeling so bad instantly gave her the chips and told her sorry and that I would get her some food if she wanted.  She said it was Ok but she should have just clearly been rude and told me I took her chips because I was being the rude one hahaha.
