5.19.2011 & 5.20.2011

Day 1- Orientation at CAPA International Education, in Kensington, where we are taking classes for the next 6 weeks! We also had a police safety talk which was very interesting-apparently pepper spray/mace is illegal and can be up to 5 years in jail...lets just say a few American girls were throwing out some from their purse very quickly after the talk.
Of course we struggled a bit with the tube on the first day and walked into the meeting 25 minutes late, great first impression from the Clifton Garden Flat...
Getting adjusted to using the underground transportation, apparently people don't talk on the tube so we obviously stood out from the locals. Also, smiling at people is not normal here- big clue that we are from the states!

The London eye

At 135m, the EDF Energy London Eye is the world’s largest cantilevered observation wheel and was launched in 2000
