London 2011

So I was thinking about my "grateful" posts and how honestly you probably don't care.
So instead every week I am going to post a memory from my trip to Europe I went on in April.
Maybe that will be a tad bit more exciting!
So today, my first post for this Europe reminiscence is...
Our first day in London, England.
(Warning- the first day in London, we all look like Hell. Literally. By this point we had gone almost 3 days without sleeping technically. We were past the point of exhausted. I've never in my life been that tired. We coudn't even stay awake on the tours. We all passed out on the bus. Eventually our tour guide gave up and let us go to our hotel and get some rest. So if you're thinking, wow they look miserable... that is why).
 MMMM... I just love the architecture in Europe. So beautiful.
Had to drink water from water bottles. Why? Water can easily make you very sick. I wasn't taking a chance to miss out on traveling to Europe. This trip was a HUGE deal to me.
 We were there not even a month before the royal wedding I think. So it was busy, but exciting and structures were being built for the "big day."

These girls (Lauren, Shayla, & Krystal) are what made the trip SO much fun.
Oh if I could go back... Someone wanna take me there? Or just give me the money to go?
It would be greatly, greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I wish!

So a little story about the 1st day of London was that we were so exhausted, the Tour guide had  to practically drag us off the bus to see the London Bridge. Finally when we got to our hotel room, thee girls and I ordered room service for dinner and to tell you the truth, I can't remember from the time I finished eating to falling asleep. All of a sudden I woke up at 0:00 in the morning? They obviously forgot to inform me of the different times?! I freaked out, it was dark outside and I was supposed to wake up Lauren to tell her to take a shower. Well, after us being a little stressed about not knowing what time it was, we found out it was midnight. So we went back to sleep until 10:00 then next morning. Yeah, we slept from 5:00pm-10:00am. Well worth it too.
Our tour guide saw us the next day and told us he didn't even recognize us, we looked so much better.
How sad. They aren't kidding with the phrase "beauty sleep"!
