Study Abroad in London: Icebar London & High Tea in Covent Garden

This last week has been a ton of fun as we have spent the entire time enjoying London. I went to see Phantom of the Opera on Tuesday night and absolutely loved it. The choreography, stage design and singing were all so impressive!

Then yesterday I went to ICEBAR LONDON which is a bar made completely out of ice. You enter for 40 minutes and have to wear a poncho (which they give you) because it is so cold inside! Our glasses were even made out of ice! It was so cool! (No pun intended, haha I'm a Harris.)

Then today I went to high tea at a hotel right outside of Covent Garden. We sipped tea and enjoyed small sandwiches, scones and mince pies. (I didn't eat any mince pies though.) I really enjoyed high tea because it basically is just relaxing and talking with friends. The eight of us just sat and relaxed and talked about our favorite thing we did in London and our favorite trips from the semester. It was a really nice way to end the semester!

Yummy goodies!

Then after I wandered around Covent Garden which was sooo cute! I had only been there at night, and never seen the market area of it before. People literally set up booths to sell jewelry, pictures, hats, scarfs, vases, food, you name it under this giant dome in the main square area which keeps everything dry. It looks a lot like Fanuel Hall actually!
