London Pt. 2

On my second day in London, we woke up late because we had been out late the night before. We packed up all of our stuff because we had to move to a different apartment. The person we booked our AirBnb through canceled our trip the day before we were supposed to go so the only way we were able to have housing was to stay in two different places for the time we were there. After we left, we had breakfast in a place Zoe and Tyler went to the day before and said was good. It really was good. I had poached eggs and some type of cheese that I have never heard of before. After brunch, we went to the British Museum. It was so cool to be able to see all of the ancient artifacts that they have. My favorite was the Parthenon area. I loved being able to see the remains of that 2500+ year old temple that I had studied. It was so amazing to be able to see artifacts from the Romans, Greeks, Egyptians, Assyrians, etc. whom I have studied. It helps you understand that they were real people, not just stories in some far away time and place. After the British Museum, we had some fish and chips. They were ok, but we probably didn’t go to the best place. We were in a touristy area, after all. After lunch, we went to king’s cross station and took pictures with the trolley next to platform 9 ¾. It was a 40 minute wait to do that, but it felt like something we kind of had to do. Afterwards, we went to our next Airbnb and dropped our stuff off. We decided to see if we could get tickets to Hamilton that night. So we waited in line for about an hour. Zoe was the only one who was able to get a ticket. She got a prime spot for 200 pounds, but the guy who sold her the ticket was so nice that he gave her 100 pounds back! Tyler and I had some Indian food in the meantime. I am not sure what I got, but it was good. And then we met back up with Zoe and went to sleep.
