Primrose Hill

Today was pretty eventful! More eventful than I thought it was going to be that's for sure.

I had Politics this morning and it was very interesting. We talked about the political powers of the monarch. We learned that her power has diminished but she is still a very important figure in here. After class, Caitlin, Becky and I went to Coco Momo for lunch. It's an adorable restaurant jsut down the road. We had the best waiter I have ever had in my entire life. It was his first day but he was so incredibly nice. He was definitely laying on the charm. he was joking with us and extremely nice. After our meal, Caitlin ordered a coffee and he drew a heart on a piece of paper and left it under her cup. It was adorable. Becky and I had Theatre this afternoon so we sat for a little while until we needed to leave. While we were sitting there I noticed an email from our professor, Brian. He suggested that since today was supposed to be the only sunny day this week that we go on an adventure instead of sitting in the classroom. He wanted us to meet us at a tube station a little while away. Of course, as soon as we got the email the skies open and it began pouring. We got on the tube by the time we reached Swiss Cottage the skies cleared and the sun was shining. We walked from the tube to Primrose Hill. On our way to the park we walked through one of the most expensive parts of the city. We walked right past Jimmy Carr's house. Jimmy Carr is a British comedian that also hosts a yearly show called Big Fat Quiz of the Year. I absolutely love the show and that is how I learned who Jimmy Carr was. I have learned also learned that he has the most ridiculous laugh I have ever heard. I have included a video I found on YouTube for your enjoyment.


We climbed up Primrose Hill (a giant hill in the middle of a park) and had an amazing view of London.






After the park we walked a bit more toward Camden. I have never been to that part of the city and I loved it. I am definitely going to have to go back and explore some more. We all took the tube back and headed back to Metrogate. I've been chilling out and doing work and Jill and I finally booked our day tour in Scotland. I can't believe we start travelling on Friday. It's so exciting!
