hallo from jolly old england!

hey everybody!
caitlin and i are in london right now it's a tad bit chilly, cloudy and rainy... british weather! yay! we have been up for 25 hours! and it's only 2 in the afternoon here! our flight got in at 8:25, right on time, and after money exchanges (£52 for $100... not ok), immigration (a terrifying british man, we thought we were going to get sent back he was so scary!), and getting oyster cards to get on the tube it was 9:25. we took an hour long tube ride to king's cross station, and were swept up and out of the station by hundreds of fast paced british people. we were under the impression that our hostel was near the british museum, so we asked for directions to the british museum and headed where we were told. with our huge, heavy backpacks and heavy purses. fast forward to us getting way lost, we found the british museum, but noone around it had even heard of the hostel that we were looking for! finally we asked in a hotel and the concierge looked it up on the computer for us, we were sooooo far away. outrageous. so we made the trek to the clink hostel, and arrived a little after 12:30. after booking ourselves two nights here, we went out for a yummy lunch of bangers and mash! now we're chilling at the hostel, waiting for check in time! a bed sounds so nice...
