Related to my trip to London or no, these are just a few things to note about my past week.
- There are towel warmers in our bathrooms! A sort of set of heated pipes connected to the wall, you hang your towel them during your shower and they're nice and warm when you finish. Drying wet towels on them, however, may cause mildew.
- Coffee makers are not very common in England. Back in the day coffee was quite popular. In came the British Tea Company with their exotic eastern wonder and coffee was no more. Coffee was reintroduced as a bohemian trend, which caught on for a while. Within the past decade or two coffee shops have started popping up again. Starbucks cloaked its presents with the facade of "Seattle's Best" but has now returned to Starbucks and can be found frequently.
- Nightlife in London looks like fun. On the way back from the theater a random guy passed my roomates and I and asked if any of us wanted to go out (presumably to a club). We kept walking (my roomies were tired and not to be distracted).
- While navigating my way down the escalator to the tube a gent commented "there's a nice spotty girl," which amused me as I recalled that term being used in 101 dalmations. Oh, and just so you know I was wearing polka dots.

in spain, polka dots are "lunares" which is like little moons.
I wish we had towel warmers in our bathroom! The past two times I've showered, it's been with not hot (but not cold) water. Oh well, it was hot out.
Today Sam and I met an English couple in church. They just moved to Spain 3-4 months ago and were very charming. I will probably blog about them
I want to go visit you so badly, just so I can hear people say stuff like that. And talk like Albert and Margaret did in church today. Oh, and, uh, see you.
