The Play from Heck

DAY THREE

The day began with an up and gett'em trip: first thing in the morning we took off to the Tower of London.  The rain was crazy and the weather cold, but the Tower was amazing.  We spent time touring all over the castle including the crown jewels, the bloody tower, the white tower, ancient jails, and Tutor style homes.  It was so neat to view as see things that as so deep in tradition and add depth to why British people are the way they are.

After touring the tower we took off on a walk all along the old Roman wall.  We stopped at a very old chapel, visited many of the remnants of the old roman wall, and walked all through the financial district of London.

After finishing the walk we toured the Museum of London which is basically a complete history of London from the Roman's to the current day.  The museum including thing such as exhibits on the great fire, the black death, and old time relics.

Following the play we when and saw Big and Small this was one of the most modern plays that i have ever seen.  The play was written around the time of the cold war and focuses on one woman trying to fit into humanity, while humanity is facing extinction and all of its horrid follies.  My favorite part was talking about it after words with Jordan, Loren, and Emily.
