We went to the Globe Theatre today. The tour guide made fun of my lack of an umbrella...but when he asked me where I was from and I told him Seattle, he said "oh, I understand you actually like this kind of weather." YUUP!! i am loving it!
The theatre was built to be as similar as possible to the original (or the 2nd one, because the 1st burnt down due to a special effects malfunction involving a cannon). There was still no celeing to keep the weather out, all open. They still put on plays when it is raining, the stage a covered a little and most of the sudience also. There is no roof so the light can come in, since there is no stage lighting at all. It was really cool. They were settnig up for a play ans there were these girls whos job was to sweep the water off the front of the stage. very interesting.
after that we took the tube back to school and went to class after a quick bite to eat. Happiness class, we basically talk about being happy, and what really makes people happy. Its a fun class and also the biggest class. No real plans for this afternoon, its been raining so a lot of people wasnt to go back and get warm before we do anything. Also trying to get ready for amsterdam. We are going to share bags and bring the absolute minimum in case we have to share a hostel room with a stranger for some reason, and to get through everything quicker. Not excited for another plane tomorrow though, ugh. At least its only and hour!
Peace

It would be so fun to see a play while it was raining, do they really run them even when the weather gets icky? I can see it now, a sea of umbrellas, all except for row M seat 4 and there sits a young blonde girl from Washington state who refuses to use an umbrella.......that would be you my dear!
ReplyDeleteHappiness class, I think we should all have to take a class on how to be and more importantly to stay, happy and content.
Love you
