...which was a great city to start out my 10 day Eurotrip. I think I saw all the sights in 3 days that I possibly could have without exhausting myself. I hit up most of the tourist spots (Buckingham Palace, the London Eye, St. Paul´s Cathedral, Hyde Park, Trafalgar Square, etc. etc...) and was freezing my butt off the entire time. Our hostel was definitely different than the 6 person bedroom and ocean view hostel in Malaga. Imagine 24 people in one room and 3 story bunks. I did not even know they made 3 story bunks. On my first night, Elizabeth and I slept in a room with some guy who had to have had sleep apnea or something because he was the loudest snorer I have heard in my life.
The next day, we picknicked with KFC in Hyde Park and walked hundreds of stairs in St. Paul´s Cathedral where a breathtaking view of London awaited us. It´s such a huge city and there was so much more I wanted to see, but the dollar-pound exchange rate was killing me. The next hostel night was a hundred times better and we ended up chatting and having our €2 pizza and classy €6 red wine with some Italians, Croatians, and Polish people. Mix all of us together and it made for some interesting conversations and fun times. After 3 days in London, we made our way to Milan for a day which is a whole other story in itself.
Btw...The British Museum has one of the largest exhibits of Egyptian artifacts.
