Platform 9 & 3/4

Today has been a bit of a kick back day. I learned that our washer and dryer is kind of broken. Instead of having both a washer and a dryer, the UK has these TINY combination washer/dryers. My clothes got washed, but wouldn't dry. I ran it again and then the door wouldn't even open. On the 5th time running the unit, the door finally opened. My clothes were completely soaked. The dryer cycle didn't even run. So I had to wring out all my clothes and hang them over the radiators around our flat. Hopefully they dry, because I've been wearing the same socks for three days.

Two weeks ago I went on a little outing with some Harry Potter fans. In the movie, Harry boards a train from Platform nine and three quarters, which the author obviously made up. But because of the series great popularity, Kings Cross Station put up this sign between platforms 9 and 10. We took some pictures there.

Running through the wall to the train platform.
Marika and I chillin'

Not as comfy of a seat as it looks.

Well it's dinner time, so I'm gonna go make myself a burger. Good night everyone!
