What an amazing day. We've got a real glimpse of London. I can't wait for tommorrow. Today we found our hostel at Globetrotter village, we went to Shakespeare's Globe, we figured out how transit worked, we walked all over and saw London Bridge, the tower of London (from the outside). We had some amazing food. I never knew a baguette with brie cheese and Italian Salami could be so refreshing. (Or fish and chips for that matter). London in many ways feels like a place that was built up until the 1920's and has stayed in that era for a very long time. There's a lot of soot and cleanliness isn't as big a deal here. But there are also some new progressive buildings and many interesting people. We're staying in a place that looks like Coronotation Street. Some of the houses would go for £500,000 for a one bedroom apartment. It is quite insane. I'll update with more tomorrow.
