This is the view from my hostel. Edinburgh Castle is pretty sweet.
Walkin' down the street.
A little pond. In the back ground is a mountain that we climbed. We went up to the right, which is off the picture.
Scottish Parliament. Pretty weird looking, but kinda cool.
Who need a path up the mountain? Straight up!
Hmm, I thought I had more uploaded on photobucket already. But I don't. Bummer.
Today was a GREAT day. My roommate and I both missed our alarms, so we didn't make it to class. It wasn't a big deal today and it was the first class I've missed, so it wasn't to bad. Then I made some lunch and did a little work. After that I went down to the pub on the corner and played darts for 2 hours. That was pretty great. Intense competition. Haven't played in weeks.
The next part was the best though. You may have heard about Improv Everywhere's (www.improveverywhere.com) Grand Central Station Freeze. They got a couple hundred people to Grand Central in New York and froze in place for five minutes. It's all over YouTube right now. Well many other freezes have happened after that one. Today, April Fool's Day, there was a World Wide Freeze. It happened in San Francisco at 9am, New York at noon, London at 5pm, Italy at 6pm...more than 20 places froze at the exact same moment. At Paddington train station, ten of us from the London group went to participate (including a teacher). I'll post some pictures of it and the link to the videos when they go up.
My flight leaves London on April 12, so there are 11 days until I come home (late at night, so I'll see you all on the 13th). On Sunday the 13th, I'll be going out to eat Mexican food (because I miss it). Don't know where or really care, as long as it's good. Anyone who wants to come is welcome. See you guys soon!

I was amused that you mention wanting Mexican food as soon as you get back — it was the same for my group too.
Actually, a few of them went to the Mexican place in Leicester Square, but I heard it wasn't very good and was terribly expensive.
And while on the topic of food, have you bothered to go out to one of those chicken places that always has a slight variation on a common name (Chicken Cottage, American Fried Chicken, US Fried Chicken, American Style Chicken, etc.)? They all have the same menu, so any one will do.
