Megs: Londons Calling

So much has happened and there is so much to say. While I started this blog mainly to showcase my school and trips I have taken while working at SkyWest, I have so much more to add on. I guess the best place to start is from now and on. Well, I will back up a little. This post will mostly be pictures of my most recent trip to London. I went for Spring Break, which was March 19th - March 24th. One of my best friends in the world was living there for a few months to help out her aunt and I decided that I was going to come visit. So, for my birthday and other reasons I took off on what became an interesting adventure...

It started off at the airport on Saturday morning. My alarm didn't go off and when I got to the airport... I ended up not getting on the direct flight to Detroit. So, I had to find a detour and I found a great one. I decided the best way to get there was SLC to Rapid City to Minneapolis to Detroit and then to my final destination, London. I had a great time and even saw Mount Rushmore in Rapid City, but it turned into a SUPER long day. Now I understand when people complain to me about being awake since 4 am on flights. Ugh.

Here is Mount Rushmore. I rented a car in Rapid and drove the half hour to see this sight. I didn't, however, want to pay the 11 dollars to get up and personal with the presidents. While amazing craftmanship, they were small and a little disappointing. I also stopped at a Taffy making place while I was there, the taffy was good... but nothing like salt water taffy. Nothing is as good as out salt water.

This is one of the first pictures that I took. I promised Emily, a friend from work at the U, that I would take random pics while I was there. And this was one of them. The tube. And this is London. :)

Nat, with her cocktail and the best cocktails sign EVER!

I wish I would have been here all day saturday for the Portobello Road Market. I love markets and I know this one would have been my VERY favorite!!!!

Fish n' chips. I didn't have them last time I was here... so I had them this time! Yum!

Nat and I at a pub... she really likes this place. It was good! and it was right after we saw Pricilla Queen of the Desert! It was so amazing. Best Birthday present EVER!!!
