Today after church, I went on the Soho to Trafalgar walk with Kelsey, Amanda, Emily K. and and Corey. It was really fun. It was also smart because we were able to walk through Soho without everything being open. Starting at the National Gallery, this walk is full of beauty. I was also impressed with the Olympic Countdown calender in front of the building. Oh, and don't forget the living statues. It is a fun, artsy part of town. We continued on through the Theatre district. It was brightly lit, and it was fun to see in the daylight. It was difficult to see the entire theatre when we went to Les Miserables, so it was really cool to be able to see the entire thing today. I was also tempted with many more musicals that look incredible. There is just not enough time to do everything. The other part of this walk that I loved was Chinatown. I did not know it was so close. I am going to try to get a group together to go and get some really good Oriental food. Sharing platters are always the best. It was a very relaxing walk, and it helped me to see the sides of buildings I had already visited. Every time I do one of these walks, I feel it better orients me to the massive and beautiful city that is London. My love of the city is deepened with the walks, and I develop a more personal connection to my surroundings.
