I got myself an Oyster card holder - that makes me a real Londoner I think. Now I don't have to drag out my whole wallet every time I touch in or out of a tube station!
I also bought a watch. I never had use for a watch before but since I don't have a phone yet, I've found that I never have any idea what time it is. Problem solved with my new pretty watch!
I also got a case for my computer and some postcards and souvenir-ish things to send back to America.
I seriously need a job. Having all this free time is getting expensive!
It's "family" dinner night in our flat tonight. Mat got a bunch of steak from whoever supplies the meat for their restaurant so we're having Mexican night - fajitas and Coronas :)
Here are some pictures from today..
Mounted police in Covent Gardent
My tube route home from Covent Garden - I get off at Finsbury Park or Holloway Road.
Mat's restaurant in Covent Garden :) Go eat there if you ever come to London!
Our room so far. We'll have so many more decorative pillows and a new throw blanket soon. America does look beautiful on the wall!
ALSO, I miss my mom. Someone convince here that England needs her more than America does so she'll come for an extended visit :)
