Arrived In London!

Just a quick note - I just arrived in London and am at my hostel now. Using the internet for maps of where I'm going to go but I think I'm going to have to buy a proper one or I'll get lost.

It was absolutely pouring with rain all the way here but as soon as I arrived and got off the bus it stopped which is a blessing!

Tonight I'm going to go on a Thames pub Walk - it takes in more than pubs though, and I think we go past the Globe theatre which will be good so I know how to find it tomorrow night when I go to see The Comedy of Errors. (Which coincidentally is the play I'm studying this week at uni!)

Right now I'm going to just go for a walk and look around I think, and find some food. And if I come across and souvenir shop I'll probably be a tourist and buy some :P I might even walk to have a look at Buckingham palace as I don't think its very far from here. And at some point i need to work out how to use the tube - which I'm actually excited about doing, and not scared which is somewhat of a first for me! If I get lost I'll just go on my own little tour of London finding myself again.

By the way, the only person who has successfully told me what my dutch phrase at the end of a previous post meant it Bjorn, and I told him I'm not giving him a prize since he has an unfair advantage. (Sorry Grandpa, the literal translation doesn't really give you a good idea of what it means.)

Here's another one that might be easier.

Hoi! Hoe gaat het? Ik ben blij!

Tot ziens!
