Reunited

So today started out as still last night when I woke up from the flat 9 couch to the sound of the buzzer to the flats ringing at 3 a.m.. Larry and Lindsey had finally made it from Florence to see us! Amazingly they had navigated their way here from the airport by train and bus since they didn't land until after midnight. We had been so worried because we hadn't heard from them and all we knew was that they landed. So once we all freaked out for a while, it was off to bed. We had class again today so we brought them with us and send them off in the direction of a tube station with plans of meeting in Trafalgar Square at 5:15 p.m.

Class was interesting to say the least and really showed me that the truth we strive for all the time is actually really hard to find. And there are lots of people out there who will try to convince you they are right.

After class we were about to get on a tube to the square when a woman overheard us and told us that the square was just around the corner. Well, not quite. So after a ride on a double decker bus, we finally met Larry and Lindsey in Trafalgar Square. They were so smug sitting by the lions about how they didn't get lost and beat us there. - But in our defense, the woman told us the wrong way!

We went for dinner at an Irish pub and I had salmon fishcakes! yum! We took the Florence duo to the theater and we walked back, stopping at TopShop. What a bad idea. The jewelry was adorable and I wanted it all. But I decided to wait. Especially since I have street markets and Rome to look forward to!
