June 10th, 2011

Shakespeare class started off the day then we headed to Greenwich to see Spring Awakening. What a fantastic musical! The voices of the actors and actresses were so pristine! The show itself was done very well, although I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone who is uncomfortable with controversial issues. After the play we had some free time, but we were so tired, we just went back to the hotel to rest. We eventually we and had dinner at a lovely little oriental restaurant called Hare and Tortoise. The sushi was great! A few movies in the hotel room finished off the night. The next morning we woke up early to go see the Trooping of the Colors. I got to see Princess Catherine, Prince William, and the Queen herself! We met a guy who had come to see the parade several times, and he helped to point out to us the different regiments of the royal guard. It was pretty awesome to see. Once the parade ended, we got some coffee and headed off to wash clothes and shop for the rest of the day. We found a part of the city called Camden Town, and it was filled with second hand shops and markets with great deals on some really cool stuff. I hope I get to go back there to pick up some gifts!
