D: Distances, Walking, and Lemon-Lime Water

It's 5pm on Sunday in London.  I'm a bit under the weather, but will soon be much better thanks to water, vitamin C, and some helpful British medicine.  Classes are beginning tomorrow, something which I am actually quite thankful for, seeing as our time shall be quite taken up with studying, leaving no room for our "tutors" (British for professor) to concoct evil schemes.

Yesterday, our tutors sent us on a "tube rally".  It involved running around London for 8.5 hours taking pictures of sights and learning small facts about the city.  (To anyone who once accused me of loving to walk too much, I must tell you that I am very happy that I am used to walking long distances in any weather, as I will certainly be required to do so here.)  My team accidentally stayed on a bus too long, which resulted in us finding it necessary to take an overground train to get out of Hackney, which is not the best neighborhood for a few American girls to be found in at night.
