Best Dance Party Ever!

Today was quite an interesting day! It started out with a trip through the east end markets. I have never seen so many gypsies in my entire life! We got flowers from one who asked us to give her money for the children? So we gave her a pound...stupid Americans.

Anyways, the markets were really interesting. They had great clothes, amazing food- I had a brazilian cheese roll-amazing- and really pretty flowers.

After the markets, there was a rainstorm with the biggest raindrops I have ever seen. 20 minutes later, it was a beautiful sunny day again. This weekend has had incredibly nice weather, considering the past week has been all rain.

Since it cleared up, we went to the Notting Hill Carnival. It was quite literally 2 and a half miles of dancing to carribbean and latino music, a parade that lasted from 11-9, and the most eclectic people you have ever seen. If you are ever in London in August, I absolutely suggest going to the Carnival!

Tomorrow is the first day of classes, and I have my internship meeting to find out what I am doing this semester. Should be exciting!

Cheerio!
