Day 22. July 23. London

We had to be at the train station at 7:00 in the morning and after having such a long day before we were all a little worn-out and tired. We got on the train heading to Cambridge. Once we arrived we walked two miles to get to our tour. Our group split into two and my half of the group ended up with the most adorable tour guide. She was a little old British lady named Sally. She was so sweet and cute and my attitude changed as soon as she started on all of her little fun facts about the places we visited. The first place we visited was a little courtyard called the Eagle Pub where there is a restaurant where Watson came running in yelling that he found the meaning of life after he found DNA. It was also a place where American Soldiers came to eat and drink during the war. One soldier decided that he wanted to write his name on the ceiling that put wax over it and then thousands of soldiers after him did the same thing and it is still on the ceiling of the pub. We went around the campus and saw all the different colleges including King’s college, and the King’s college chapel (very pretty chapel). We went around town for a little bit. We found a street called “Jesus Lane”. Then Sally dropped us off at the pub to have a 2 hour lunch. Since we are in England we all got fish and chips(except Ali, she hates fish, Kait doesn’t like it either but we got her to order it). It was a full fillet of pure deep fried goodness. We got Ali to try it and she decided that she still hates fish. But Kait decided that it wasn’t that bad. She said, “I like it because it’s one more fish that is dead.” Ha. We met up with Sally again at the Fitz William Museum. Sally showed us the key points that she thought were worth talking about. We made our way outside of the museum just as it started raining and just as we were going to go to the canal to go punting. Punting is basically a gondola in the canal. After that we made our way back to the train station for the ride back. It was a long two days but worth it.
