London, Great Britain
Anna's entry:
As soon as we entered London, I felt excited and overwhelmed at the same time. People were everywhere; I tried to ignore numerous crowds of locals and tourists, and wanted to focus on what I came for – the history. As I was walking around London, I was feeling so many things, and so many memories were evoked. I remembered the time when I just started studying English in St. Petersburg, Russia, and the textbooks about Britain. How many times I imagined in my mind Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, St. Paul’s Cathedral, Tower of London, Buckingham Palace, The Parliament, Trafalgar Square… And there I was, many years later, standing right in front of them… They were beautiful, just the way I imagined them… I could just sense the presence of all prior queens and kings of England, and the history created by their predecessors and followers…
