We made it to London!!  It was very hard leaving Lisa today!  But after a week with her showing us around and being our personal tour guide, it was time to go out on our own!  We rode a bus from Manchester to London....a long ride-about 5 hours! 

We arrived and found our hostel with little problem.  We are getting very good a map reading and problem solving!  We are in a 6 bed room with a girl from Australia and a boy from London.  Both seem really nice and have offered advice and suggestions on what to do with our 2 days here! 

We spent the afternoon walking around London...in the rain...We walked to Hyde Park and tried to go to a music festival, but it was sold out.  So we went to the Hard Rock Cafe Store and to supper at TGI Fridays (I know, very American, get over it!!) 

The weather is still raining and cold Raining in London, Who Knew?

 .  We are surviving by reminding ourselves that it will be dry and sunny in France and Italy...we hope!  I am not sure if we can handle much more rain and wind.  I have no idea how they manage it here! 

We have started making more reservations and plans for the next stretch of our trip.  It is exciting and scary at the same time!  We are doing well and getting very good at remembering the small details!  

I hope things are good at home!  I love and miss you all!

Hugs and Smiles,

Tanya
