So today we had orientation for our classes and basically to orient us to the London center. After that we went walking around London on the first of our "london walks" for the London walks class that is part of our curriculum in class here. We took the tube down to the tower of London and then walked over tower bridge to the footbridge (which was the one from Harry Potter that the dementors destroy), took the footbridge to St. Paul's Cathedral and then walked up to trafalgar square, past the London eye, took pictures at big ben and parliment and took the tube back to the center. On our way back on the tube there was awesome signing band with a violin, a guitar and a banjo singing on the train so we enjoyed their music and gave them some of our change. All in all it was a pretty walk. Then when we got back to the center we had this wonderful chicken curry. Now we are going to try and get tickets to the show Macbeth that is here starring James Mcavoy. I will post some pictures I took on our picturesque walk today.
