First Class

Today we woke up early and took the Tube to Regent’s! I ended up getting on a full cart and everyone else missed it so I had a little trip on my own...whoops! We all made it to the college safely and indulged in a fantastic breakfast in the cafeteria, or the “refectory."

Regent’s College




The first class went well today! We learned more about the German unification and the beginning of World War I. 

Everyday we only have class for two hours and then have the afternoon off or plans already made for us. This afternoon after lunch at Regent’s, where Zach and I surprisingly ran into Adam Hoffhines, we went on a walking tour of London and were treated to some pitchers of Pimm’s by our professor when we finished.

Julia and I at the Royal Courts of Justice. This time we got to go inside!

Tea!

Enjoying the Pimm’s!


At Daly’s Wine Bar


Mark Twain and Charles Dickens among others are known to have spent time here. It was originally burned down in the Great Fire but was rebuilt shortly after.

Some of the group

After another long evening trying to find a place with decently affordable fish and chips and no wait time, we stumbled across a place close to our flat! 

Tonight some of the group went out but the rest of us are hanging back for another night of cards and relaxing before class and the Jack the Ripper tour tomorrow! 

Updates to come, with love!
