MeDieVaL WaLk oF LoNdOn


Monday, December 8th

Woke up and journaled to catch up on the weekend. Then our International Studies class took a walk through the history of medieval London. It was rather interesting, and also our final class. I can’t believe that it is my final week! I am so sad, but also really tired and ready to go home.

Our walk started off at Moorgate Tube Station, and then we walked through some old buildings rebuilt after the Great Fire, and some graveyards from the plague. We walked by the Barbican Theatre where we had gone to the symphony earlier this year, and then past some old Roman walls. It is really crazy how all of these things, new and incredibly old, are all right here next to each other.

After class, I came back to my room and journaled some more, and then left for our weeky meeting that evening. Here, Deb gave me a bowl that Jackem had made me, personalized with my name and everything, with a note apologizing for burning my coat last week. Ha. I thought it was hilarious!

After the meeting, I went back to my room… and journaled some more…
