July 19, 2002: Camden Market and Jack the Ripper

I woke up at 7 am and took a shower and washed my hair. I got dressed and went down to breakfast. After breakfast our Patrol practiced for flag. We had a Friends of Pax Lodge meeting then our patrol did flag. I got to lead the Hokey Pokey. After flag we went inside to listen to the WAGGGS speaker. After the presentation we worked on our part of the WAGGGS service project.

After the project our group went on a scavenger hunt around Hampstead. It was horrible. Whoever was supposed to be leading got us lost and my feet hurt the whole time. We finally got back to Pax Lodge and ate our sack lunches.

After lunch we went to Camden Market to shop. I got some England pants (Red), and England zipup shirt, and a Union Jack spaghetti strap shirt. After that we rode to the Dr. Marten outlet store (All 5 floors of it). I bought a pair of Patten Leather knee-high lace-up boots. When we got outside some of us got henna tattoos on our arms. Mine's really cool, only 2.50 and it lasts for two weeks.

After we got our tattoos we went to a little fish and chips place to eat dinner. I got an America Hamburger and chips. We rode the underground to Tower Hill and went on a Jack the Ripper Walking Tour. It was really neat. The tour was two hours and then we took the Tube back to Pax Lodge. I cleaned my room a bit, tried on my purchases. My boots took 5 minutes to lace, each. Afterwards I brushed my teeth and went to sleep.

Mystery Trip

I've always wanted to just disappear on a trip and have a solo adventure. So I planned one. Next April-May I'm going to disappear on a plane out of DC and I'll let everyone guess where I'm off to next
