Exhausted already!!!!

Friday night we all went to Jude's Ferry Pub for drinks and dinner. We had an authentic british dinner and it was actually pretty good. Most of us also tasted liver for the first time and weren't really impressed. Later, 4 of us went to The George, where we are starting to become "regulars" haha, to listen to live music. Saturday we went to London this past weekend and had a great time!!! Didn't get all that much sleep, but we madeup for it in everything we saw. We left Lakenheath at 7:30 A.M. and rode the shuttle bus down to Heathrow airport in London. We then took the tube into Central London to find our hostel which happened to be right across the street from the Natural History Museum. We ended up walking around there for a little while and eating there. Apparently it's pretty expensive to eat anywhere around London. So, we ate at the museum. Then we were really close to Buckingham Palace as well as Harrods, so we went to see those places. We then made our way to WestminsterAbbey, Big Ben, and the London Eye. After those we all met up and decided to go see a movie. We ended up seeing "He's Just Not That Into You". It was a pretty cute movie. But the weird thing is at their theaters they have ushers and assigned seating. So, we bought our tickets earlier and went to dinner and did some shopping before the movie started. All of the girls bought quite a few things in the souvenir shops that were around the movie theater. Sunday morning we all got up and had a British breakfast that was actually pretty good!

Here are a couple of pictures...one is of Big Ben and the other is Westminster Abbey.

Monday I got to start teaching. I'm just doing the introduction activity with the first-third graders. They all seem to enjoy the game that we are playing. I have no idea how elementary Phys. Ed. teachers do it. I'm just totally exhausted after every class. I have twenty classes every week. It's insane!! So far I know maybe 3 kids' names in each class, but I do know everyone's name in one class!! Mrs. Inglat's class, I know every single students' name!!!! GO ME!!! But other than that, that is all. lol I'm really enjoying my teacher, she has great ideas and teaching methods.

This coming weekend it's off to Amsterdam and from what we hear, we are to be EXTREMELY careful with our belongings. So, pray for safe travel and kept belongings!!!
