June 8, 2013 - Sherlock Holmes, Camden Market, and Sweating

Today was a really fun day. I slept in until 10:30, showered, got ready, then Jena, Missy, Lex, Lora, Anna, and I went over to Baker Street where Sherlock Holmes lives! Even the Baker Street Underground station had little Sherlock wall coverings.

We turned the corner and saw a big line of people and we figured that was for Sherlock and we were right. We didn't go into the museum because we didn't want to pay but we went inside the gift shop and took pictures outside.

I bought a few things then we headed next door to a Beatles shop. It was ridiculous! I have never seen so many things Beatles before.

The rest of the girls were going to Westminster Abbey but I was meeting Kasee, Camille, Jess, and Shelby at Camden Market so we split up. It took me a while to figure out how to get there on the tube. At one point I thought I was on the wrong train so I got off but then I realized I was on the right train so I had to wait for the next train haha but hey I figured it out! Once I got to Camden Market, I realized that it was much bigger than I thought it was and there was no way I was going to meet up with the other girls. So I just walked around and looked at the shops. I didn't have any cash on me and there wasn't at ATM around so I just browsed. It was so cool! Usually I would freak out over being alone in London by myself in a crowded market but it was actually really nice. I felt really independent and I just listened to my music. 

Here are a few pictures of Camden...

I walked around for about an hour and then just headed back to South Ken. I feel like I rode the tube for an hour. I stopped by Subway on the way home and got a footlong, half for lunch, half for dinner. I came home and ate it then just chilled. I went through all the stuff that I've bought and made sure that I had stuff for everyone. Kasee came home and started doing that as well so at one point, our room was completely covered in souvenirs and bags. We then headed to Waitrose and got groceries for a week before we leave for Rome. We came home and just chilled. I finished my sandwich, facetimed my momma, then we all just hung out. Our flat doesn't have freaking AC and it is freaking hot so we are all wearing the least amount of clothing that is appropriate with boys around and just stewing here sweating. Jess bought henna at the market today so we all plastered ourselves with henna. I put the Deathly Hallows sign on my left wrist, a mustache on my right wrist, a Mickey Mouse head by my left pinky toe, and a lightning bolt by my right pinky toe. 

Really we just had a chill night. Stephen and Tayler went to Harry Potter and told us how amazing it was so I'm really excited for Friday!!! We all hung out in the living room for a while but it was just so freaking hot. I made some bread for my cheese but I burnt it (making the kitchen hotter...) We all moved into our room because it was cooler. Some people are doing homework, others are blogging like me. I am probably going to bed soon because I'm exhausted. Night! Love you guys!
