Day Nineteen: Wimbledon

I went to Wimbledon today, where they have the big tennis matches. I will have to go back later in my adventure here because we did not really know where we were going and what we wanted to do, or even what there was to do. Also, my back began to ache after a bit of uphill and downhill walking so we sat for lunch and just relaxed there. Next time i am going to make a few plans and perhaps find a map, haha.

WHen i got home i flopped down on the bed and relaxed for a bit... and stuff. Weird, that is all i have to say about today. Oh well, i guess i can speak more about Wimbledon.

It was very beautiful. Here the houses are considerably smaller than those back home in the USA, so with that in mind the houses at Wimbledon were huge and very beautiful. We walked through a neighborhood which was conserved due to the historical nature of Wimbledon and it was glorious. It was exactly how one would imagine historical England to look with vine grown walls and little wooden or bent steel doors. Little towers and stained glass window adorned most of the home. The clouds where very dark and low and it really did feel like the rainy and fall England that i have been expecting and waiting for. It is weird that i am anxious for the rain? I need an excuse to do my schoolwork.

Later!

  1. Do you really need an excuse to do school work?
    I don't think so. You are a student. That should be reason enough. HA! HA!
