Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.

Well really boats, trains, and automobiles. Yesterday we traveled long and far as a whole group of 35 to finally arrive in London at about midnight. It all started out with a bus ride to the ferry port, then taking a two hour ferry from Dublin to Wales. Next was a two hour train ride from Wales to northern England, then a quick change and another two hour train ride into London. It truly is a miracle that we all made the various connections and no one was left behind and that our professor did not have a heart attack. And on top of it all, we got to meet some really interesting people and learn a lot about the places we're visiting. For some reason I've become completely fascinated by the history of Ireland and all that they've gone through, even in recent years.

We're not getting settled into our flats in London, which at first weren't quite what we had expected, but we're now enjoying them. Now the adventures in London begin!! (sorry there's not pictures from the day, we were all just a little too tired and out of it)
