A London Travelblog

I just got my camera back today. Not all the pictures turned out well, which kinda sucks, since there were some pretty funny ones (me pulling Lara towards the creepy Dickens kids comes to mind). But of the ones that DID turn out well, here are some of the highlights (I might post the rest later ... right now, I'm sick and exhausted, and I have a paper to write tomorrow in, er, the 90 minutes before class). This photo that you see now is actually from the Victoria and Albert museum in London. They had some mirror art dealy, so Lara, Sarah, and I thought we'd be really clever and take a picture of it and us. Er, actually, it was my retarded idea, I believe. But I think it looks kinda cool.

Anyway, the rest of the photos:

British Museum. This is a picture of me from the top level of the British Museum looking into the Great Hall or whatever it was called (it wasn't called that, but it was something similar. The actual name escapes me now). Because the rest of my family had left, I had to take the picture of myself, which is more difficult than you'd think when you want to get a specific background. I aimed the camera first and then tried to slowly rotate my body so the camera stayed in the same position. Yeah, didn't work all that well ...
Mary Poppins. My mom thought this was the church from Mary Poppins where the dad goes when he's depressed or something. She was like, "Let's take a photo!" and my sisters were like, "This is stupid," but I agreed.
My first legal drink. Notice I'm drinking a half-pint. Wow, I'm sad.
Sarah accomplishes her life-long goal. Note the look of ecstacy on her face.
My room. Where I stayed in London. Not much more to it.
Retarded photo. Sarah's pointing to a sign over a private school that says "Boys" while I look quizzical. This photo was better in our heads' (er, Lara's head? or was it Sarah's idea? I don't remember) than it actually turned out. We have a strange sense of humor ...
Adam with King John Bringin' Down Da House. King John is saying, "I brought the house down." He had to besiege his own castle to get rid of some rebels, so 700 years later, the Rochester tourism board has an effigy of him saying, "I brought the house down." Wow, gotta love British humor.

Okay, that's it for now. I'll post the rest of the London photos from my camera when I'm not so tired, and then there's always the three or four rolls of film that we used on the family camera. I hope ya enjoy the pictures.

I can't put up a picture now. I shall put up one later. But it will be really good, I promise.
