Day Four: Wicked Day in London

Self Discovery: 5/2/2014

Today was a day full of London Culture and I had a blast! The was a little bit of a rush to finish all that we wanted to see before the day was over, being the last day in London. I just love seeing where the city will take me. I love watching for cultural differences between the US and England. Today I went on the London Eye. I was really proud of myself for not freaking out. The London eye is HUGE. It was over 100 feet taller than St. Paul's Dome. I am straight up am terrified of heights. But since I've been on this trip I've wanted to do things out of my comfort zone. I don't want to waste my time on this trip not trying new things, or immersing myself in the culture because it scares me. Just navigating the city on my own has been a huge confidence booster for me. I have loved having all this free time and being able to have this city at my fingertips. It is a neat feeling and I'm loving it!

With this city at my fingertips I decided to visit Camden Market. It was a really interesting place. I loved seeing all the little shops set up, but it was also a little sketchy. It was fun to explore for a bit but then I needed to get back to an area that didn't seem a little sketchy. I'm sure we were fine in Camden Market but you can only handle being outside of your comfort zone for so long. It was still a lot of fun. I'm glad I went and got to experience this little bit of London culture.
I went and got to experience some touristy sites. I went to Abbey Road. That was a blast! I got a picture on a cross walk on abbey Road. Not the famous crosswalk but it was still fun! Then we went to Baker street and visited Sherlock Holmes. My inner fan girl came out quite a bit while visiting these sites. It was a fun day.

Finally I ended the day seeing Wicked! That was so much fun. I really loved this city and am so sad to be leaving tomorrow. But it will be the start of a new adventure.

Wicked!!!
