Friday and Saturday in London

Last blog entry--we had two jam-packed days in London which included our stay at the Imperial College of London , a visit to Buckingham Palace, a ride on the
the London Eye, a session with a former member of the British Parliament, a tour of the Tower of London, lunch with King Henry V111, a stop at St. Paul's cathedral, lots of walking around, a few exciting rides on the tube,
a dinner at a Chinese restaurant (huh?) and an interesting walk through the London Gay Pride parade to the Phoenix theater to see the Broadway play "Blood Brothers." Up on Sunday morning at 6am for our 10:15 am flight home to Chicago and Texas. We all had a terrific time and we hope to have lasting friendships with our new student ambassador friends. Enjoy the rest of the summer!
