June 10th - Thursday - Day 18

today has been by far the best day of this trip. nothing can ever top what i did today. You want to know dont ya? wel i will start with the morning and dont you dare scroll down to find out! I woke up around 930 to go down stairs for breakfast with the group then i skyped with josh for about an hour. it was nice. i really miss home, as much as i am enjoying my trip i wish he could have came with me. anyway after i skyped i went down stairs to return armon's computer to him i discorved the new plan for the day was to visit westminster abbey, where i planned to see issac newtons tomb, and then lunch then some sight seeing and shopping and possibly ride the london eye. i stayed with them for a bit and ate lunch. we went to westminseter, where it cost 12 pounds to go in so we voted no, so i didnt get to see him tomb, which is fine i can just watch Da Vinici code if i want to see it that bad lol. after all that we took the subway to Oxford Circus and they all went off to shop and i walked a little bit and tried to find the 1st hard rock cafe, but no luck so i went to the hotel to use internet to look it up and found it. so i let Kacie know where i was going to the hard rock and took off. when i got there i walked around a bit in the rock shop and then went to the cafe where i got a bite to eat, sat down and had a shot and some twisted macarroni. i asked for it with out peppers and when it came out it had peppers and i was sad. i started pickign them off and apparently i was making faces while i did cuz the manager came over and asked me how my meal was and i said fine, and he asked me what i was picking off and i told him that i had ordered it sans peppers and it came with peppers so he apoligized and then got me a new order and some bread and a coupon to tour the rock vault and get a photo of me on prince's couch. i was like cool thanks walked over to the rock shop and into the vault, which we learned was the same vault the queen kept the crowned jewels in untill 1999 when the bank went under and hard rock bought the building. anyway inside was amazing they had so much stuff! original les paul played by les paul signed by les paul! Jimi hendrix's flying v guitar! Beatles harsicord that they used for st peppers album!
anyway i walked over to the guy and showed him the coupon and he asked me if i would like to hold one of the guitars and i said sure, which ones can i pick from and he told me oasis and then he said kiss and i didnt hear the other two, naturally i chose kiss and i looked and it was Gene Simmions AXE GUITAR! i nearly had a heart attack! so naturally i picked that one! he handed it to me and i sat down on princes couch and he had to run upstairs to make sure the entry way was secure so i was alone with it for a god 2 or 3 minutes before he took the photo, it was so cool! the other guitar was Steve Val and i think sting i dont quite remember. but anyway the pooint of the day is that i got to hold gene simmions guitar and it was awesome! i walked back to the underground and caught the tube back to earl's court and came to the hotel the whole time i was in a daze. it was a great day! tomorrow there is talk of oxford or stonehenge so i am going to bed so i can get up early to enjoy our free day!

love,
