Happy Birthday JenChiu!

FIRST AND FOREMOST: HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAY JEN CHIU!

Ahh Finally up at 4pm today to begin the day off...we'll need to start changing our nighttime habits in order to get into the swing of things and to see more of daytime London...but last night was my friend Jen Chiu's birthday so we had to stay out till club closing and then happen to be right next to china town where we had an incredible meal of egg fried rice, noodles, and chicken with chili sauce (orgasgums in the gums. it was deliciosos)

But here's a few updates on some other things we've been doing:

Besides experiencing more clubbing, we had:

an alternative type of night on Friday where we ended up at a place called CLUB KOKO which was a ways away but well worth the journey. The venue alternated club music and new bands which turned out to be phenomenal, I'm adding a video clip below to illustrate this European hot spot we discovered. Reel Big Fish is playing next week Thursday so we might go check it out! (video clip did not work so I'm putting up a picture instead, look for it in a future post perhaps)

Anyways, we got to visit some of the British Museum which had some fantastic treasures in it including: THE Rosetta stone, Cleopatra's mummy (she was a small lady!), and a BUNCH of ancient artifacts. I love history so this was a lot of fun to walk through and learn, I'm still fascinated by the ancient Greeks and Romans who were so sophisticated with their societies. Below is a short clip of the Rosetta Stone room and a couple of other pictures.

WE're planning on getting out to more museums soon so stay tuned but our main accomplishment today (besides reading all of Oliver Twist sparknotes) is that we booked our trip to Amsterdam next weekend! Watch out Dutch, here we come in full force!

My next entry will probably be down the line a bit until I can work up some more good experiences but until then, CHEERS!
