Richard III and Biking

 Today was fun! Pretty low key but I think that's just what I needed. In the morning I headed over to the Imperial War Museum! It was very interesting to see a different countries view points on WWI and WWII, and how it affected them differently. I spent the morning looking around different exhibits, and quickly grabbed some lunch (sketchy sushi from a tent...vender....man. I'm guess it wasn't legit and I could die in a couple of hours) at a market before heading over to see Richard III at Shakespeare's Globe Theater.

Like a boss.

This was an ambulance that they used in WWI!!!

Sketchy sushi!!!

At the Globe we got standing seats... so I suppose they aren't really seats then are they! Ah ha! Realization. Anyways... I had standing "seats" and started getting really sleepy because of course I haven't been getting enough sleep lately. Side note: I kept having nightmares that the Woman in Black was right outside my window. Back to the story though. I was starting to fall asleep standing up... doesn't sound possible does it! Well, I can make the impossible happen because I started to drift off while standing up. The usher/attendant for the theater apparently saw me from far off in the distance and came rushing over! At first I thought she was mad at me for not paying better attention. Little did I realize that she thought I was fainting! Or at least about to faint. After much discussion I was able to convince her that I DIDN'T need medical help. Or perhaps I did and it was the sushi settling in!!!

So I have about 50 of these on my camera from this whole trip. I thought I should add one. Sarah folks.

I finished my day with a lovely dinner, and a bike ride through Hyde Park!!! It was so fun, I felt like one of the "Londoners" just going for a short ride. Except it was clear that I wasn't actually from here because I had the hardest time staying on the left side of the path... AH I'M LIVING IN LONDON!!! Sorry. I just realized that again. Sometimes it seems to good to be true!

Bike ride through Hyde Park!!!

I thought this was a creepy photo of me... and thought I should share.

Oh! Then I went and got "Snogs" Frozen Yogurt. It's all the rave here, but funny enough it is just like Spoon Me back at home. Anyways.... Good night from across the pond!
