The first week of November saw Mikey Galanek and Allan "Bruce" Craven to Cheltenham, England to spend a quality little weekend. They both are studying in Barcelona for the semester and it was nice to see some of my friends from Etown for a couple of days. On Friday, we ventured to Burton-on-the-Water, a town about 30 minutes from Cheltenham. It is in the beautiful Cotswolds and a lovely area to walk around in. The stream that runs through the town is only about 6 inches deep. Due to heavy rain, we wern't able to spend much time in the town itself. On Saturday, I made my 2nd trip to London so Mike and Allan could see how awesome of a city it is!! We took a free walking tour, where we were able to see all of the Royal Attractions. (technically not free because you tip the tour guide but still much cheaper than the double decker bus tours!) This time, I was able to see the Tower of London, an attraction that I didn't have time for last trip! We also attempted to see Abbey Road, home of Abbey Records and the famous crosswalk on the Beatles albumn cover but were unsuccesful. (due to many tube lines being closed, I got us lost haha). I can't believe it is getting close to Christmas already, as the Christmas lights are already turned on all the way down Oxford Street!! With a great weekend behind me, I must rest a little bit before my 5 v 5 football match tonight. Let's get the win TAN DOGS!!!!
