We left Italy Saturday night and flew out a little before midnight because our flight was delayed by about an hour. It took us about 2 hours to get to England and we finally got to out hotel around 2:30 am. A bus picked us in the morning and took us to Royal Holloway University where we will be spending the rest of the week. This is where we are staying.

Everyone has their own dorm room and we are staying in the 4th floor. This school was built in the 1800's and was the first women's college in England. As we were given a tour around campus, we learned that parts of Harry Potter were filmed here.

Sunday afternoon we rode a train into London a had a little look around. It is about a 40 minute train ride from where we are staying into London. We walked and walked and walked then found the Hard Rock Cafe and ate dinner there. The London Hard Rock is the first one ever made. Everyone was very happy to have American food and we were very happy with the little thing like ice in our cups, free refills, ketcup and ranch dressing. After dinner we went next door into the Hard Rock Store to buy t-shirts. We also took a tour of the Vault where other rock memorabilia is stored.
