A New Year in London

And so the first day of the new year served as a good omen for the new adventures to come. The sun came out over London and although the temperature was cold, the sights were brilliant and the people warm and friendly. Yesterday was definitely a day for good things, as I met a few new people, and was invited to an english football match in the near future. Brits appear to take their football - or soccer- quite seriously, as it's also been all over their news. Should be fun to watch. The search continues for a place to live and I am confident that today will bring good news from the inquiries I've sent. Although I've grown quite fond of the dorm-roomesque feel of my current hotel, I'd really love to unpack my things and feel settled. So - I will see what today brings and I'm off to get my fill of Hyde Park...

Below are some photos from my first few days... Trafalgar Square and the National Gallery, Buckingham Palace and views from St. James Park...
