This morning Rebecca and I met up so that we could go to Shepard's Bush and do our ethnographic study. Rebecca's friend was in visiting from Spain, so he came with us as two of our group did not get up to go with us. Shepard's Bush is only two Tube stops away, and it is a lot like Notting Hill except less rich and has a HUGE mall. This mall is so beautiful, and I used that opportunity to buy a belt (for research purposes only of course). There was also an amazing little playground full of children and pigeons. London has a lot of pigeons...
After everyone got back from their ethnographic study we all decided that we wanted to do something on our day off. The Tower of London was on the our list so we took the Tube to Tower Hill and saw London Bridge and the Tower, but when we got there we realized that it closed in an hour and we came to a dilemma. If we paid to get in we would only have an hour, so we would have to rush, or we could go back another day. We decided just to take pictures and go back another time, but now we had to decide what to do. I looked at my map and saw that St.Paul's was close by so we walked there. It was so beautiful and amazing. It was getting dark, so the pictures are not the best, but we could go inside for free because a mass was about to start. Unfortunately, you cannot take pictures inside. Now we are back at Palace, and we should be having dinner soon(we stopped by Tesco on the way back). Later we might watch an episode of Sherlock.
