First weekend in London

So our weeks are pretty much laid out exactly the same. We have class Monday, Tuesday, & Thursday. We have day trips on Wednesdays (all-day), and we have our "London Walks" course on Fridays. The walks course is where we go explore in groups, and have a guided walk that we are supposed to go on. Saturday is a free day! Sunday may be my favorite day, we get to attend church in a ward here! We have a fireside Sunday night, and family home evening on Monday evening. Tuesday is bachelor night (Okay that one wasn't given to us by the professors but us girls here put that on our calendar). On class days I go 10-1 classes are located in the Hyde Park Chapel. This serves many purposes: church, visitor center, mission office, & gyms), After class we get to be free to do what we want. I literally feel like I am living in a dream. Now that I am adjusted and have been in the routine (for 4 days) I feel like a local. Okay, well not really I still can't remember which way to turn my head when crossing the road, I follow my friends on the tube since I don't know how to read the map, and my face looks like a tourist every time we go outside and walk around. It is fun to at least pretend like I am a local, and an experienced "Londoner".

This is the Hyde Park Chapel. (10 minute walk from where we live).


We went out to waffles and they were delicious.

Went to Baker Street and Sherlock store on Saturday ( I must admit I have never seen Sherlock but still had fun going). Here is what we found near Baker Street. Really? I guess it is normal to just come across a graveyard while walking in a garden.





I was stoked about getting a picture with a telephone booth (I am positive I will get more pictures like this they are just too cute and SO London). 



This I saw in the bathroom, just made me laugh.
