It's me again! Today we had a free day in London, so we decided to do a couple of things. First thing in the morning, we went to the London Tower. Here, they had a lot of the Royal stuff like crowns, swords, and china. They actually use a lot of the china that was on display because there were a lot of "in use" signs where they were missing. The china was really pretty because it was all gold, real gold I'm assuming! We also took a guided tour of the Tower which was really interesting.

After the London Tower, we went to Subway to have lunch. After Subway, we went to Ben and Jerry's! Yummy :). It was really hot again today, so ice cream just topped it off! We heard today that this may be the hottest May they've ever had here in England, and I believe it. I didn't pack any shorts, and I'm definately regretting that decision! Anyways..

We went to the Tate Modern which was pretty interesting also. I don't know too much about art, but I even found it interesting. It was even free! Well, besides the most popular paintings like Picaso! So, we didn't go in there, but we went to the rest of it.

After the Tate, we tried to make phone calls back home for Mothers Day, but it turns out that nobody likes to answer their phones! Moms cell phone doesn't take international phone calls, and Cathy was in church. (excuses, excuses) ;). Tomorrow we're going to go shopping for stuff to take home, and we're even going to try to make it to Wimbledon. I'm pretty excited to go to Wimbledon, even if it means just taking my picture next to the sign that says "Wimbledon".

Oh, I saw someone get arrested today while I was looking for a phone booth! I thought it was pretty cool! Well, I'm going to get going to bed, I'll see everyone on Wednesday or Thursday!
