London!!! i want to go back!!!

ok soo ive been back for while now but i have been super busy with finishing and studying for finals. ok now for london.... we left right after our history final to go to Pisa. We werent sure if we would be able to make it to Pisa by train because there were strikes going on, but once we got to the train station, there was a train going so we hopped on. Once we got the the airport, we still had a long time before we could check in. We all found a spot to sit and eat our dinner. I still had somewhat of headache from stressing out at this time. After an hour or so of waiting this really big group of kids from london came up and were going to be on the same flight as us. we rushed for the front of the check in line so we wouldnt have to wait for all of them to get checked in. Once we were checked in we had to go up to the boarder control to get our passports stamped. After that it was time to get on the plane. That was the worst plane ride of my life!!! take off to landing was about a little over an hour...and i was in the bathroom puking my guts out for almost the whole ride...we got off the plane and i felt like i was going to faint. it took us about another 20 mins before we could get our passports stamped. after that our taxi driver was waiting for us with our names on a sheet. i was glad to be off the plane, but being in another moving vehical was going to kill me. i had a bag in my hands for the 2 hour drive just in case i ended up getting sick. It was around 2:30 when we got to the house. we couldnt find the house at first bc each house has a name instead of a number. we had to call kaylas aunt and ask her where it was. she was there waiting for us at the house to let us in. where we stayed was the annex which used to be an old storage house until a tree fell on it and they rebuilt it. we slept in pretty late the next day. when we got up we got to meet the family. they have two boys, jamie and john. jamie was about to turn 17 and john is 13. they way they treated each other made me think of my booger little siblings :). later that day we went for a walk out in the country side of London it is really pretty where we were staying. They live up on a hill so you can see the little towns around them. Kaylas aunt and uncle even own goats!!! we got to fed them :). in the annex there were three beds so kayla and bri shared the pullout upstairs i had a mattress in the band room and danielle had a bed in the kitchen. the next day we were off to oxford!! Oxford was to pretty it is made up of a whole bunch of colleges. while we were there we got to eat at this placed called the mission. sooo basically its oxfords version of chipotle! i was soo glad to have mexican food!! after lunch we walked around the town and went into part of one of the old libraries and we even to the bub, Eagle and Child, where CS lewis and Tolkin would meet up and have a drink and talk about there books. I was still feeling pretty bad, but was slowly getting better because of my meds that the DR gave me back home. once we got back to the house we got ready to go have dinner at the local pub. It was just a quick walk through the woods to get there. I had the soup of the day since i was still feeling queasy from earlier that day. After our lovely dinner we headed back to get some sleep because we had to get up early to get to LONDON!! we had purchased tickets to go on a haunted ghost ride for Halloween night. Sunday morning i was feeling awful again. At first i didnt think that i was going to be able to go to London. We went to this little church in town for mass. I had taken more meds and was going to base my decision to go to London on how I felt after mass. It was nice to hear mass in English again :). I was feeling better after mass and knew that while i was in London i would feel better with the fresh air. So after mass we were on our way to London! we had to take a train to get to the main station before getting on the tubes (subway) to get to where we wanted to go. This first day in London was more of a walk around and relax day. we didnt do a whole bunch of touristy stuff. our first stop was Piccadilly Circus. This is Londons downtown New York City, with all of the lights and signs and shows. I really wanted to see a show while we were there but we didnt :(. pretty much the whole day we were walking around London and looking at the sights. the girls wanted to find fish and Chips so they had that for lunch. I was feeling better, but didnt want that grease in my stomach so i had a slice of cheese pizza...:/ yes i know.. i wasnt in italy anymore but it was the only thing that i thought my stomach could handle. after lunch we walked some more and had quite a few impromptu photo shoots with rocks that looked like eggs and in a park. After a while we found the Sherlock Holmes pub, which was right across the street from where our bus was going to start for the haunted bus ride. once we knew where it was we walked around because we still had like 4 hours before our tour started. we ran into an Indian Festival and i even found some Dr. Pepper!!!! i was really happy :D. finally we decided to go back to the pub and wait. Kayla and Bri had some beer while me and danielle passed. During this time bri and i had a really good discussion and she helped me figure out somethings that i needed to work on. finally it was time for the bus ride. I was scared, but we were laughing pretty much the whole time. after that we were all tied and ready to get back. we crashed as soon as we got back to the house after the train ride. ok that was my first 2 days in london i will have more up later, but right now i need to get some sleep. we leave early tomorrow morning for ROME!!! ill post more later! Ciao!!!
