London Week 1


We have fallen in love with London. Time is going so fast and we just want to hit the pause or rewind button. Everyday is filled with so many things and we are always running from one place to the next, but life could not be any better. We are here with the best friends we could ever hope for, listening to British accents all day, while seeing some amazing things. I don’t think that you’ll ever be able to get us to leave this place. Here’s what we learned…

You will always be tired. Always. Sleep is overrated anyways


Church in England is a good time. The church building is amazing, which is lucky because we live there 3 days a week. It is where we have class and one of the only places we get wifi 


Cozy Pod dinners are a definite success


You will never outgrow first day of school pictures



Strawberry Cream Crepes at Kensington Creperie is life-changing




The tube is our second home (it takes 45 minutes to get to school, church, and other parts of the city)


Going to school (and doing homework) is less than appealing when you want to be out exploring London


Bringing canned pears for lunch is a great idea (sorry I mocked you Karli)


St. Paul's is unbelievable. The climb to the top of the dome is amazing!










There is a shout out to Utah in the stained glass at St. Paul's


This staircase was in Harry Potter and Sherlock Holmes



Les Mis will change your life. Especially if you are able to get seven 5th row tickets for £27. Mel almost stopped breathing because she was so excited.





Skyping with Kev and the parentals is bound to be a good time




The Royal Palace at Brighton reminds us of the Taj Mahal









Fish and Chips on the pier at Brighton is a good idea, but beaware of seagulls





Brighton isn’t lying when they say they have the world’s best shakes




Manda is still obsessed with Ferris Wheels


We LOVE Karli's selflies


We love Fall. Nothing makes Manda happier



Monk's House. Virginia Woolf lived here…







Camden Market is one of the happiest places on earth- it’s bad for your wallet though


The banana man stand (strawberries and bananas covered in chocolate) is a dream come true



Evans is everywhere. Represent


Phantom was a good time
