Pictures above are:
Above- courtyard at the other dorms...all hanging out before Thursday night - No Friday classes!
Right - in the cab heading out Saturday night with the girls.
First of all I was so glad to hear the road race back home went well! (For a few years my neighborhood has held a road race as a cancer fundraiser....kudos, you all rock!)
So London is really starting to feel homey, the weekend was a lot of fun! On Friday night we found a place called O'neils in Soho...don't worry it was a good part of Soho...I promise. There was a live band and no cover charge which was amazing. The study abroad students tend to all find each other on the weekends, so walking in and hanging out in a big group was fun.
Saturday again we headed over near Covenant Gardens to 'Dirty Martini', kind of crowded but a good Saturday night out. Today was very relaxing, I rolled out of bed later than I'd like to admit and worked on cruise things. The girls and I booked all of our excursions.
...In Nice, France we are going to Monaco and Monte Carlo ...in Pisa we take a 10 hour tour of Tuscany, Florence, and Pisa ...Rome we are doing on our own ....in Naples myself and Ashley are hiking Vesuvius and sightseeing in Pompeii ...Sicily is a beach transfer for a nice relaxing day :o)
Couldn't be more excited!!!!!
These are the girls I'm going on the cruise with:
Lauren, Deanna and Ashley!
(They are all Yankees fans - it's been tough but if my cousin can marry one I'll deal ;o)
So the rest of the day I hung around with my girlfriends...we talked over trips to Dublin and Amsterdam and then headed to Whole Foods for dinner. I really am a Whole Foods junkie now, all my snacks are organic and gluten free (I'm channeling my Aunt Rose - Hope the Pats win!!!). Afterwards I headed to the gym for the evening, hit the sauna, showered, stopped at Starbucks for a frappachinno (sorry no spell check on that) and then I headed home. Getting into routine with school, gym, eating etc. feels wonderful!
Lots of love all xoxo,Kate

Hey Kate,

Hey Kate,
I want to be your age again!! Some day you will look back on this time of your life and realize how adventurous you were. We are in awe @ your new life in England.
We saw a good Pat's game even though Brady is out for the season with a knee injury. Football won't be the same this year, but Cassel looked pretty good despite not having alot of previous playing time. Thank goodness for the Sox and Celtics!!!Love and miss you. Love, Aunt Rose
