England 2007


Our second stop on our backpacking trip was England. We flew into London and stayed in Patrick's grandma's husband's flat. It was awesome to live like a local for a while. While we were there, my eye developed a pretty severe sterile infiltrate and we spent the first day wandering the city, pharmacy to optomologist to hospital to Morefield Eye Hospital. We waited for hours, but I was seen and treated for free! The next day we took a double decker bus tour around the entire city. We saw Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square, Picadilly Circus, the Parliment building, the Tower of London...etc. We took a river cruise on the Thames and I took way too much video. The next day we took a tour of Bath, Wiltshire and Salisburg. The Roman baths were really beautiful and impressive. We were lucky to see a university graduation in the town square that day. In Wiltshire we saw Stonehenge. It was really awesome.
