Pretend I Posted This Yesterday... Much Ado About Nothing

A lot of people were in Scotland today, so Jesse, Leslie and I went back to the V&A. I took about a million pictures of iconic chairs. We also saw the modern glass art exhibit, which was absolutely beautiful. I've always loved glasswork. I think the V&A is one of my favorite places we've been to so far- crazy, right? Never thought I'd love a museum so much.

"Cinderella Table"

"Knotted Chair" by Marcel Wanders... did he earn his knot-tying badge? I think so.

"Artichoke Lamp"

After going home for lunch we headed to Covent Garden Market, which is like a shopping place within a shopping place. It's kind of a barn-like structure, with bunch of small shops as well as an open area down the center where vendors sell jewelry and knick knacks.

Jesse's Dad told us we HAD to take a look into Harrod's, so that's where we went next. Harrod's is an enormous shopping center for the fabulously wealthy. I didn't anticipate the "fabulously wealthy" part, so when I checked the price tag on a cute scarf I had a heart attack! The scarf was over 300 pounds, aka over 500 American dollars. It was super cool in there, though. We saw Gucci bags and jewelry and downstairs there was this awesome candy shop. Even if we could never get anything it was fun to look around.

Leslie and I left Harrod's a little early so we could go see Much Ado About Nothing at the Globe Theatre. We went with Averyl and it was so awesome! I had never seen before but I followed along pretty well. We were really lucky to get tickets; we showed up an hour early and the tickets were all sold out! Luckily we stuck around outside the ticket booth, and a few people came up to us and sold us their tickets. it was a very close call! I have to admit, standing for 3 hours was a little bit tough on my feet, but it was still really good.

The play ended at about 10:30, so we didn't get home until about 11. And I was dead tired. Which is why I didn't blog yesterday. The end.
