London Adventure: Day Six
Journal entry six (Tuesday)
On Tuesday morning, I went to the BFI library, which holds a ton of British media books, magazines, newspapers and even international reading material as well. After BFI, I was able to have a backstage tour of the theater that is going to present the Flying Princess later that evening. The theater was so very cool, and I was able to see the different types of props that the cast uses. What looks like wood, is actually foam! The BFI library is extremely resourc...

On Sunday morning we went to the markets. The first market I went to was Camden market. I was able to buy some really cool and good smelling inscents from the market.The second market we went to is called Covent market.

After the markets, we went as a group to the London Eye. The London Eye is like the ultimate ...

London Adventure. Day three
Journal entry three (Saturday)
On Saturday morning the group went to Stonehenge and Salisbury. Unfortunately it was raining, but I still was able to get really good pictures. At Stonehedge I took a bunch of pictures and learned that there is more to Stonehenge that has not been dug up yet. It felt so unreal being able to see Stonehedge, because It was something that I only thought I would be able to experience through books. At Salisbury, I was able to go to all the little shops and I got a rea...
