Well, there you have it folks, my week in London. Mom and I decided it be a girls trip this time around. If you don't remember, I have been to London three times now. I think I have fallen even more in love with this city. I am happy to say I have mastered the tube system!! :) There is just so much culture and history that even after visiting it three times, I still don't think I have seen everything!
We saw David Oakes again, oh the joy that was in my moms heart that night! He even remembered us from last year - how cool is that? If you happen to be in London now through October, you must see Shakespeare in Love. It is honestly one of the best plays I have ever seen. And the cast members will just blow you away - I promise. They are all such a talented bunch! I am surprised not many people were waiting for them by the stage door though. But if you do see this play, wait for them! It's so worth it to have a little chat with them and even a chance to snap a photo!
I love London so much! The excited little actor in me freaked when I walked inside Keats house and toured the Globe Theatre. One day I will perform on that stage...one day! Anyway, this was one of the best weeks ever. I met so many lovely people and have truly been inspired. Now that I'm home, I'm motivated with my blog, my new youtube channel, and acting.
Only 3 more weeks until I head back to sunny California and I'm ready for what this year will bring! So many things to plan this semester *aka studying abroad*! I hope you guys are doing well and you're having a fantastic week! Let me know if you've ever visited these places and what your favorite city is!!!
