DAY 4 & 5:

We've maily been in the archives doing research the last two days, but I have learned alot.

Last night we all went out for supper. I mistakingly ordered a burger instead of a steak, but it was probably the best burger I have ever had. Nevertheless, I am not a fan of British food :(
Tonight we went into London again and almost went to see Shakespeare at the Globe, but desided contrary. We then went down to Picadilly Square again & Leister Square to do some investigation on musicals and movies. Movies are almost 10 pounds here!!! Holy Cow, that is alot of money, so we gave it a miss, but we will go see Mary Poppins soon.

We also went to the Hyde Park singles dance. It was alot of fun, but really hot & sweaty :) I loved the techno music and there were some cute guys around. All in all a fun evening.
