Well I just got off the phone with my bank in America. My money should be arriving in my bank account either today or tomorrow, preferably today more than tomorrow. This past few week has really shown me how much I spend and even rely on small unnecessary items, such as a coffee from Starbucks. As soon as I can get quid from my account, I'm heading directly from Barclay's bank to Starbucks to get a Pumpkin Spice Latte. Yes Kara and Claire, I know we promised to not eat at any American chains while abroad but there is something so amazingly wonderful about that tall cup of frothy, sweet, spiced milk and coffee that I just can't resist. But as of now I am completely broke so I should probably not even focus on spending my money on luxury items. Yesterday was fun seeing as how Claire, Kara, Elton, and I all went to the SEA LIFE LONDON AQUARIUM on the River Thames. Although it took us a while to get there considering we still aren't experts at the tube, the experience was nonetheless worth it. My personal favorite were the sharks. I also liked the penguins but it was hard get a good look due to the massive swarms of people.

Best pic I could get of the shark
Just my view when I walked out of the aquarium: )
Us checking out Parliament in the square beside it
A horizontal pic of Parliament ha. Can't figure out how to turn it at the moment

British boys playing soccer; )
Well it's one o'clock here and I still haven't showered and Claire is asleep in my bed. It's been an entire week since we've been here and we are still jet lagged. We don't really have any plans for the day, however, we were going to try and read at a fun coffee shop. We will see if this ends up happening considering we have not even gotten out of bed. I'll be posting soon. My classes start Monday. I'm very excited. Hope all is well in the States. I miss you guys dearly. Sending my love. Cheers!
Looks like you having a lot of fun! Money is overrated...LOL! Hope it all works out soon. I really like reading your blog:) Stay safe.
