Like most days I woke up. This time at a healthy 11:20. As mentioned in the previous post I was riding a high from my Hey Arnold dream. James and I sat around watching T.V. for a while. Forgot to mention this in the last post, but last night James showed me this hilarious show called Mock the Week, which is a British fusion of Whose Line is it Anyways and the Colbert Report. Anyway today we rode a couple of bikes out to the Hampstead Heath which is the biggest inner city park in London. From the top of Parliament Hill we could see all of London before us. Unlike L.A. it is not sprawled out. Most of the good stuff is concentrated within walking distance, which is why we could do so much the first day I was here. After that we went to a Mark and Spencers grocery store which is a posh place with good lunch stuff. I got my favorite cranberry and brie combo, along with some chocolate mouse, and an orange juice and it only cost 4.65£. We ate it in the Heath, talking about books and stuff, then rode back to Camden Market. I bought a couple of gifts there, and then we rode back to the house. We got back at maybe half past 5, watched some T.V., went to Tesco (a supermarket, though I think it sounds like a gas station). Dinner was good. I had two veggie-burgers which for some reason taste good to me now. I can't decide if I have gotten less picky, or if the food is just better. I hope it is the former, because that would seriously open up some windows. We played Call of Duty, watched part of Saving Private Ryan, and then I came back to my room to type up a couple blog posts. Here are a couple of British phrases that I have particularly enjoyed. "I'm just takin' a piss!" I'm just messing with you. "Can I have a go?" Can I have a turn? "This candy is lush!" This candy is quite delectable.
