Friday: Our group went to the TOWER OF LONDON!!!! It is super old. There were bits of the original Roman wall from like 50 A.D. that are still there. We saw the Crown Jewels which were really cool. For those of you who watch Sherlock, and have seen Season 2, I really don't know how he broke in. You're NOT allowed to take pictures... But whatever. we saw a lot of cool historical objects. We played a game called "Pass the Pound" where you give someone a pound when they feel sad, or say something cool, or anything that you can come up with a good excuse for. But you just pass the same pound around, so no one really keeps it. Yup. I got told by a British man that I was scary. It was pretty funny. And now.. here come the pictures!

Wait, is that me TEBOWING in front of the crown jewels.. Yah. I'm legit hahahahaha
A really big book. All it has is all of the military orders of all the weapons and stuff that they bought.. That's a LOT of weapons.
This is the picture that scared the British man. We're STRAIGHT up scary. Me, Jace and Paul. BAM.
So we're getting ready to take this picture, and the girl who's taking it is like you guys need to get a lot closer... Trust me. It was funny.But really... THIS is the picture that should have scared the crap out of that man. But I feel like I fully captured the spirit of this creepy lion thing.
Some knights are just more... manly.... than others.. BAHAHA.
Those cannon balls were INCREDIBLY heavy. What. the heck. Who knew?
Jace is a ladies man.. what can I say...
Us in all the hats of the British military. Epic.
Great group picture... We're cute. I LOVE THE OLYMPICS. Also, notice the new shirt and shoes! :)
So at this point, the day is only HALF over. I know, right? So then we got some pretty delicious pizza for lunch and set off on a walk around London. We walked through the financial district, saw the Gherkin, a church that got bombed, and went to the London Museum which had a lot of really interesting high tech exhibits. It was fun, although by the end of all that my feet were dying. That's what I get for wearing new shoes.. :P After a DELICIOUS dinner of ribs and chips- so happy after some of the OTHER things we've eaten...- I went SALSA dancing with a local spanish/Portugeuse branch. It was SO GREAT and I got to meet some super cool people. SO MUCH FUN.
Didn't realize we hadn't gotten a normal picture with one of our cameras.. so we got this one. SO MUCH FUN. It was a great night.
