So far London has been a blur of fascinating experiences, as my fellow GLSers have so awesomely described. To pick up where they left off, we are now completely done with statistics. A semester’s worth of stat in four weeks, intense to say the least, but also definitely worth it. We all miss Dr. Mee and his wife already, but are extremely excited to start new adventures with Lane.
Lane arrived to London on Friday, and on Saturday a group of us, including Lane, went to The Monument and Borough Market. The Monument was built between 1671 and 1677 to commemorate the Great Fire of London. The structure is 202 feet high, which is the exact distance between it and where the fire started. One can climb the 311 steps of the tower and see its panoramic views from the top, which is exactly what we did. After The Monument we all went to Borough Market to kill some time before a group dinner in Chinatown to celebrate both Chinese New Year’s and Lane’s arrival. The market was awesome, and is somewhere I’m definitely going to go back to. Dinner was also amazing, mostly because of the company, although the food was good too. We have all been having a great time, and will certainly continue to have a great time for the rest of our time here.
Tune in to see what we’ll do next!
