sunday in the park
i'm looking for a church to go to here in london, but looking for one is like looking for a needle in a haystack, so i took the day off and my roomies and i headed off for a nice picnic in hyde park. hyde park is connected to kensington gardens where kensington palace is. that is where princess di lived in case you didn't know. it was a beautiful sunny day, although it was a bit chilly.
yesterday we went over to piccadilly circus area in hopes of getting some theatre tickets, but our show was sold out. we then went to the national portrait gallery. it's bizarre to be looking at pictures that are actually older than our country (america that is.) after that, we headed over to covent garden which is a super awesome shopping area with cute street markets and street performers. i had my first english tea and scone there and they were both just absolutely delightful! last night we headed to a cool irish pub around the corner and listened to some live music. they were playing all cover songs and all of them were american tunes. i tried to make it into a club instead of a pub by dancing--keep in mind i'm completely sober, but most likely everyone probably thought i was a little tipsy. we met some cool british students and talked to them for about an hour or so.
i keep forgetting that i start school tomorrow and i'm not just here on vacation. although i only go to classes 3 times a week so it's not going to be extremely time consuming. i am excited to get a little more structure in my schedule though and go to cafes to study and read.
i'm hoping to join a christian club here along with a photography one. how sweet will that be! they even have a meat appreciation club....don't think i'll be joining that one. :) Please be praying i find a great christian group and a great church to get plugged into. i feel so weird not having that right now! i've been so used to it. i miss my crusade family and heartland family...along with everyone and little things like mcalisters sweet tea. i hope you know i'm thinking of all of you even when i'm having the time of my life. all my love...RJ
