Monday we went to the Prime Meridian. Surprisingly once we were in Greenwich, many people had no idea what the PM was!!! I was shocked. As usual, I can always count on my middle aged women to get me where I want to go so we eventually got some good directions.

As expected the PM was very anti-climatic; however, you had to climb a huge hill to get to the marking so the view of the London skyline made up for it.

(The long awaited PM)


I also saw my first natural chestnuts along the way up the hill.


On our way home we stopped at this amazing sushi place and all the sushi was on conveyor belts. yummy yummy



Tuesday we started orientation. It was soooooooooo boring but we met alot of cool people. I bet two girls from Norway, Ingred and Francheska and also a woman from Isreal named Rina. We also met lots of Americans, specifically from SanFran, Penn, and Wisconsin. After all the abroad students went to the student pub and some of us crashed an industry party in the school courtyard....yes we all scored lots of free food!!!!! wooo
