So, the first real experience I would like to check off my "To Done" list is that I went to the U.K. For the first time (I hope to go back ASAP).  The trip was through Bradley's Study Abroad program and we were staying in London for our class.  However, when I was not in class, I was able to do so many things and see so many incredible sights.  The following are a few of my favorites: 
 
I took a day trip to Edinburgh, Scotland and even tried Haggis! (Not too bad, I hate to admit I almost liked it...)

I stood on the Prime Meridian of the world! (Which is a lot cooler than it sounds, considering its just a place some English men decided in the 1400's was the center of the globe...)  

 
Big Ben and the Parliament buildings! My favorite sight of all! 

 
The Tower of London where I saw the crown jewels and a bunch of medieval stuff! 

The Tower Bridge! My second favorite spot and I even walked across it at sunset on the last night there.  (I recommend anyone who goes to London takes the time to do it, it was breathtaking from the top.)

Go to London AND Edinburgh? CHECK!
