Busy day/weekend/week/month

TRAFALGAR SQUARE, LONDON, UK -- I have come upon the sudden realization that I am a very busy guy for the foreseeable future. Today was a great jam-packed day... we went to Leeds Castle, saw the chalk white cliffs of Dover overlooking the English Channel and France, explored the Canterbury Cathedral (one of the oldest, biggest, and most important cathedrals in Europe), saw Greenwich University, and took a scenic River Thames cruise at sunset from The City back to Westminister.

Tomorrow is move-in day for me at Bankside House! After I'm moved in, my only real plans are to go shopping for any things it is clear that I need (microwave, some food, maybe a cell phone... that type of thing). If we have time after all of that, we're thinking of going to Kensington Palace in the late-afternoon just to see the gardens that are all around it, but it will be a game-time decision. Monday I have a meeting at LSE, and we want to do St. Paul's Cathedral here in London. Tuesday morning I say goodbye to the parents, and then have orientation at LSE, as well as the start of a few weeks of LSE social events for grad students. Besides a cell phone, I still need to activate my LSE email account and internet in my apartment, pick classes, buy my books, and get organized all by next Monday when I start classes.

That is the update for now - I am constantly posting pictures from my cell phone on facebook. If you want to see them, add me as a friend on there. If you don't have facebook, comment or send me an email and I can send them to you.
