Getting to know London

What a splendid week it has been! I feel very blessed. Every day this past week I wrote 1000 words for my ethics paper and have a rough draft that is almost ready to be sent to my professor for its first round of comments. Yay! Also, I have really enjoyed getting to know the staff and long term guests here at the London Mennonite Centre. They have helped me get acquainted with the city and welcomed me into their community warmly. Since the weather since my arrival here in London has been lovely I took Saturday to see some of the city's best sites.

I went on a free 3 hour walking tour of London where I saw such things as Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, and Westminster Abbey. At the end of the tour I got

to ride on a double decker bus and sample some fish and chips. Yummy! I hope to see some more places this weekend and at some point explore the London's free museums. I'm excited to explore some more!

I'd appreciate your prayer for all those who are trying to travel but cannot due to the volcano. Because of this LMC is completely empty and so staff who have been on holiday cannot get back to work. Thank you for all your love and support. Shalom.
