Last Day =(

Day 7...



I woke up and felt rested from getting enough sleep from the night before. It was a free day to do whatever we wanted. Some of us decided that we wanted to see the London eye...especially since we heard they were taking it down sometime soon. It was pretty cool because I got to see the whole city of London. It took about 20-25 min for the ride to end. It wasn't your typical ferris wheel. I mean this ride was huge!! It looked like a big bubble and was able to fit I'd say 20-30 people each cart? I'm glad I did it even though it costed 15 pounds! After that I headed down to where all the main shops were. The clothes are so cool over there...it sucks that we have to wait a year to get what they already have now. I didn't buy anything because I was saving my money for the night out to celebrate Tamika's Birthday.
After everyone was done..some of us had tea time! We figured were in London so how could we not. The Tea was amazing and I felt relaxed after drinking it. Our waitress was very helpful and gave us some information about some cool places to go out. After we left we only had to walk across the street to meet up with everyone for dinner. The dinner was at a mexican restraunt and it was really good. It was sad because it was our last dinner together but at the same time we all knew we were going to have a fun night clubbing. We left dinner, went back to hotel to chill out for a little, and got ready to go out. We went to a club called Zoo..It was a very cool club with lots of different music rooms...but some of the music they play was very outdated..which doesn't make scence to me because I thought a lot of music get released there first. We all had a great time and then came home somewhat late and passed out.

Last Day...
The next morning it was madness in the Lobby. So many travel groups were leaving the same time as us. I was exhausted from the night before but excited to come home and see my family and friends. When we got to the airport we had a few hours until we could actually board the plane. Virgin Airlines is the coolest airline ever!!! I always wanted to fly on the jumbo planes that they show in movies. I couldn't believe there was a bar right when you walked on! Unfortunately I couldn't sit at the bar but my seat was good enough. We had a enough enterntainment in front of us to keep us busy. In front of every seat was a lcd screen and I was able to watch a library of good movies and listen to just about any type of music..plus play games...with a remote attatched to the seat! I fell asleep for a few hours and when I woke up only had an hour left. I was surprised at how fast the time went by. When we landed we had to go through immigration and customs and then waited for a shuttle bus to take us back to Kean. When we got back my Mom and Step-Dad were waiting in the parking lot to pick me up. I was excited to see them and finally be back home. This trip was totally one of the best experiences of my life. I am so happy that I went on the trip and I plan to some day in the future take another trip back to Europe!!
