I went directly from Paris to London where I met with my European Trends in Communication class for a 5 day study tour in London.
I did a terrible job taking pictures, but we did a lot of great things. I did not, however, see the sun ONE TIME the entire week. It's sunny today in Copenhagen. Rare, but thank goodness after a full week of rain. I'm so over rain.
Highlights: (Pictures are below the list)
-Stayed at the Thistle City Barbican
-Saw Saatchi Gallery (Modern, mostly unkown artists)
-Famous Jamie's Italian restaurant
-BBC Television Center tour and visit
-Harrods
-Burson-Marsteller Public Relations firm
-Lectures from Carol Nahra and Nick Anstead
-Oxford Street (and bought jeans from Uniqlo!!)
-Marble Arch
-London Eye (again...)
-Saw Wicked (by myself...) on the West End
-Stonehenge and a reunion with Liz and Will Slinger
-Bath, England and the ancient Roman baths
-Lord's Cricket Grounds
-Afternoon tea
Things I noticed:
-Seeing Wicked made me miss my family a lot. I haven't seen a musical in a long time and I associate it with them.
-I could see myself working at a PR firm like Burson-Marsteller, which really surprised me. I have shied away from PR for a while now.
-I never shop in CPH, but bought some clothes in London!
-I am happy while I travel. I stay busy and love seeing things and moving around and tiring myself out.
-Seeing Liz and Will Slinger, some very dear friend who I haven't seen in far too long, was perfect. I'd like to plan a trip back to England for a weekend to spend some more time with them.
-Cricket is a weird sport.
-Bath, England is gorgeous.
Bath, England.
Overall, the study tour was great. I have some complaints about the disorganization of the planning, but I understand it's hard to coordinate 35 twenty-year-olds.
I got back to Copenhagen at 12:30am last night. At 2am, I skyped in to VSMT's performance of Lucky Stiff. I didn't even mind being awake until 4:30am. I was so glad to see all these people I love completely in their element at Villanova. It was wonderful.
I'm back in CPH now for a couple of weeks. Will keep everyone posted. This concludes my five blog posts in a row!!
