Birthday Eve!

Well, things are significantly less exciting today than they have been for the past several days spent with Greg, Ken, Dave, Jason, and Harvey.  We are back to work again, trying to work out the last few details for the festival.  But here is the update for the rest of the weekend...

We loved Avenue Q!!  We quoted lines and lyrics from the show all weekend.  Definitely worth seeing, even if you have to lean over a balcony to see the stage!  Sunday we woke up and went to the Imperial War Museum, had a picnic lunch in the adjacent park, and then headed to London Bridge.  We walked up and back down the Thames, and then headed to the Tate Modern and the Globe.  We tried to get tickets for the Merry Wives of Windsor, but unfortunately it was sold out.  But that was fine, and we enjoyed another leisurely walk down the Thames stopping to take pictures and watch street performers.  We ended the night with a lovely pub dinner near Trafalgar Square before heading back to Kilburn.  Our friends left this morning when we went to work- the guys back to the US and Harvey back to Canterbury for her last final.  

Tomorrow is the big 21st birthday, but it isn't really as significant here in the UK as it is back home.  We are just planning on going out to dinner with our flatmates, I think.  All of us have to work everyday this week though, so the celebration will not get too rowdy!  We also got our last roommate on Friday- Kyla from Indiana.  We really like her, too, and the apartment is a loud, busy place when we are all around in the evenings.  Well, our lunch break is almost over, so it is back to work for me!

Also-- Happy Birthday Molly!!!  We are sad we won't be celebrating together, but make Mom and Dad take you out to Cellarmans or something!!!!
