win-chester.

today was absolutely crazy! we woke up way too early at the center and headed for a three day trip around West England. we boarded a lovely little bus that i swear is impossible to sleep on without breaking your neck. our first stop was Jane Austen's house in Chawton. it was absolutely hilarious to see all the boys in the group basically want to kill themselves the entire time we were there. Aubrey was hilarious and said to me, "oh my gosh. the boys here are acting like they're too cool for this. i'm like, come on. get over yourself." it was classic! so many of the girls here LOVE her, so it was fun to join in on the love!

after that we drove to Winchester Cathedral. it was absolutely stunning. its one of the largest cathedrals in england.
once again, we boarded the bus and headed to bath. it was the craziest, most amazing thing. i loved the town so much! the roman baths were so interesting.






this is us drinking water from the bath!!! DISGUSTING. i literally almost threw up. it tasted like how the hot pots up in heber smell.. but worse! so naturally we washed it down with a starbucks frappuccino.

we're spending the night in the bath youth hostel. it is so hilarious. it is actually really really nice so we were all very surprised. there is a communal bathroom that all the girls and boys are sharing, and i think the boys are quite traumatized to shower in the morning! i'm in a room with 8 girls and it is so so fun. tonight we sat in the hall for hours and just had the greatest time. we played signs, then did a massage train, told SO many stories and just had a blast. it felt like girls camp all over again. we were expecting to walk into the hostel with asphalt floors and gross men with knives as roommates, so we were extremely pleasantly surprised!
