Recap:
- Visited Stonehenge. This was something that I was really looking forward too however I must say I was a little disappointed. The weather was miserable and my umbrella kept flipping inside out. Not tight. We couldn't get as close to the stones as I would of liked too. Regardless, it was still cool just to be there, I just wish the weather wasn't so apocalyptic.
- Visited Bath which was beautiful. It reminded me a lot of Italy, like a more compressed version of Rome. Toured the Bath museum and went on a walking tour with the one and only Bob Craig.
- Took us a while to get back into London because of insane traffic. Once we got back, a bunch of us headed to a new pub/restaurant called Goose. The place was nice and had cheap food and drinks. Mostly everyone was watching the Champions League Soccer final between Man U and Barcelona, but ironically soccer is the only major sport I don't care about.
Thoughts:
- It was interesting to see how much Europeans care about soccer or futbol over here. During the game, I looked behind me to find literally every single person in the pub just staring intently at the TV screen above. None of them even talked, they just watched. Londoners don't mess around when it comes to soccer.
- One of the best things about this whole trip is getting to know and spending time with the people your on it with. Most of us have all gotten really close in a short amount of time. This aspect on this journey is definitely going a lot better than I expected.
