Borough = YUM

Hey hey hey! 
 
So yesterday, we went to Borough Market. A.K.A delicious food every where you turn! Borough was so fun. So colorful, fun people everywhere, and the yummiest tasting food! We were all told to try the grilled cheese there because it was apparently amazing. At first i was like, really? grilled cheese? I can make a grilled cheese just fine at home... but boy was a wrong! This is no ordinary grilled cheese. It is a delicious, extra cheesy, pure goodness grilled cheese. They also had the thickest, richest, hot chocolate that my mom would have loved. And berries. The freshest berries ever! They were sweeter than candy. So, moral of the story is, i will be seeing lots of borough market while i'm here.  

So yesterday we also went to the TATE Modern for our first site assignment! We were to choose our favorite and least favorite pieces of art and write about it. I didn't think i was a huge fan of Modern art but i actually really enjoyed this museum! Madeleine and I are definitely planning to go see the TATE Britain asap! 

After the museum our professors sent us on a walk along the Thames river. It was soooo cold and rainy! I'm realizing now that no matter how many times i sing "rain rain go away" it will not stop raining. Oh well! I'm in London! So on our walk i saw so many things i want to go back and explore. But, we had to hurry back to the centre to turn in our assignments. 

Later we went and got Thai food at a place called Tuk Tuk Thai. We were told by many to try this place, so a bunch of us went! The food was deleciously delicious, but we had a horrifying waitress, who i decided looked like one of the Huns from Mulan. Yikes! After Thai food, to Madeleine's satisfaction we went and saw Avengers with some people in the group! We just couldn't pass up an opportunity to make all our friends in America jealous by seeing it early. And yes, be jealous. It was AWESOME. 

Today we got to go to church in the Britannia singles ward! It was great. And let me tell ya, it is much easier to pay attention to the talks when the speaker has a nice british accent.... ha! Next week we are getting callings and will be assigned to different wards in the area. I can't wait to get my calling! I'm not gonna lie, i'm hoping for primary. Little british kids? Yes please.
