Yesterday I woke up not feeling great, so we had a lazy morning of fresh fruit for bfast and soup and crackers for lunch. Then Kelsey and I went out shopping around Cardiff and got some frozen yogurt from a small stand. We then went to the grocery store and bought stuff so we could cook Flying Jacob (swedish meal) for Jeanne and John.
After a few mishaps in the kitchen, we had dinner ready and they liked it. Then we had to hurry and change and grab a taxi to take us to the Millenium Center for the Grease musical. We thought we were going to be late so we were running, but we made it in time :) The musical was so good! But I haven't seen the movie since I was little and never realized how sexual it is! I was laughing at some of the song lyrics they were singing because I had no idea.
After getting back to the house we all headed to bed. This morning we woke up early and packed our bags and took the 8:55 am train into London. We took a taxi right to the Hard Rock Cafe for lunch, and then afterwards checked into our hotel. Once we had all of our bags put away, we took off for London Dungeon and Madame Tussauds.
The London Dungeon took over 90 minutes to go through... but we had a lot of fun. There were a few rides inside that you had to go on... one of them was a free fall drop ride that took your picture, and Kelsey and I ended up buying it because our faces are PRICELESS in them! It wasn't as scary as I thought it would be, but it was a lot of fun.
After that, we went straight to Madame Tussauds. We took lots of pictures with the wax figures, and they even had a horror tunnel that only took about 5 minutes to walk through but those 5 minutes were scarier than the 100 minutes in the London Dungeon.
By the time we were done with those 2 attractions, it was 7:30 pm. We met back up with Jeanne and we went to Bella Italia for dinner. We shared a garlic and cheese pizza appetizer and then I got a really good pasta. Afterwards, we walked to this gelato/frozen yogurt place called Rendezvous that we saw earlier and ended up having dessert here. I had a scoop of nutella gelato and a scoop of cookies n cream gelato. IT IS SOOOO GOOD! I am going on a strict diet for the next week, and then when Greg gets here and we go to Rome I can be bad again :)
Tomorrow our plans are to go to the Natural History Museum and hopefully catch the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace. Then our plane leaves around 4:30 pm. I think I have about 750 pictures from these 8 days :)
Hope yall have enjoyed my vacation as much as I have :)
