^Our hostel was based out of a bar…aka reception was at the bar…which I had never seen before.  Thus, making this 11am drink well worth it.  Cool place.

^The London Eye!

^Outside of the Buckingham Palace

^Just found this wandering around. Thought it was neat :]

^Harry Potter tour = awesome. Ended at Platform 9 3/4 (though the real one is under construction, so we had to deal with the makeshift one. Sigh).

^The shop was CLOSED or I would have def bought the HP money set. haha

^DUCK TOUR DUCK TOUR DUCK TOUR! (Seriously, though. Coolest thing ever.)

^Finishing with the generic Big Ben pic!

(The reason I am studying in Ireland, of all these beautiful places in Europe.)

^Hello ocean. Hello beautiful blue sky. Hello Ireland :]

^Again, Ireland is just gorgeous.

^My friend, Danielle, checkin’ out the view.

^Meagan making her way down to the beach.

^Beach!

^Looks like a fairy tale.

^YES! Baby lambbb!

^Not sure who this chick is. But I liked the photo!

Went to visit one of my best friends, Claire, in Sweden.  She moved there last year and is living in Uppsala.  All I wanted to do was spend time with her and see the ice bar in Stockholm.  Mission accomplished.

^Ice bar in Stockholm! Me + jellyfish ice sculpture + drink = wonderful.

^Friends :]

Both Erin and my birthday was over our Spring break, so we decided to celebrate beforehand, while everyone was still around.  We were VIP at the one club here, Angel Lane, which landed us free champagne and the club to ourselves for the first two hours.  What a wonderful night with wonderful people! :]

^Erin and myself! The birthday girls! Woohoo!

^The ladies at the club :]

So there is that mad update.  Sincerely sorry I haven’t written in ages, but with essays and finals all around me, other things have trumped blogging.

I spent the past 10 days in Italy for spring break…and that calls for a blog of its own (hopefully it will go up within the next two days).

That is all for now!

Cheers,

Melanie
