Manna From Heaven!!!

I got to sleep in today for the first time in like two weeks! Woohoo! It was great :) Then I got up and me and Meghan went and saw the Da Vinci exhibit in the Queen's Gallery at Buckingham Palace. It was really cool! They had a bunch of his drawings of the human body and they were amazingly detailed. It was awesome! After the exhibit we ate crepes at the park and then headed over to the National Theater to see if there were any tickets left for Antigone. And there were! So we got those tickets and then went over to the London Eye and got tickets to ride that before the play. We got to experience the London Eye 4D thing because it came free with our ticket. Basically we went into this theater and watched a movie of being on the London Eye during different seasons and different times of the day. It was fun and we got water sprayed on us a couple times and bubbles came out and it snowed. It was actually much cooler than I thought it was going to be. Then we went home to change and we grabbed a cookie from Ben's cookies on the way. It was delicious! I got a white chocolate cranberry one and it was soooooooo good!!! I'm definitely going to have to get another one sometime :) Then we got some really yummy Indian food for dinner and headed over to the London Eye! It was so cool! I loved it and it was worth every penny :) We took some pretty great pictures while we were on it, too. Hahahaha, some of them are really funny as well :) Then we went over to the theater for Antigone. I actually really liked it. The set was really cool and I thought the acting was amazing! It was really well done. I had seen online that Alfie Enoch was in the play so I was even more excited to go than I was before. So we went to the stage door and waited for him to come out. I had to jump up and ask him for his autograph cause he just walked out assuming no one was there for him but we were! So I asked him for his autograph and looked surprised and said, "Yeah, of course!" Then he asked me what my name was and when I told him he said it was a really cool name :) Then he asked me how to spell my name and then said, "Is it like Vanessa with a J?" And I was so happy because that's what I always tell people when they ask how to spell my name. Haha, so yeah. That was pretty much an amazing experience. He is sooooo much taller and more attractive than I thought! He was adorable. Goodness, I really can't ever leave London! I keep meeting the stars and I am having the time of my life. Seriously though. I've been looking at schools here...

Pictures! Some of these are from Hampton Court yesterday but the rest are from today!
