I have been able to visit various landmarks and sporting events. One of the first places that I visited was Oxford st. It was very busy and reminded me of New York&#8217;s fifth Avenue because of all the stores and tourists. Near by I visited Chinatown and witnessed a dragon parade. Then I went to Leicester Square which is\u00a0similar to broadway. There I saw Robert De Niro on the red carpet for the opening of his new movie &#8220;The Intern&#8221;. From there I went to Soho and Kingly street. It had many small bars and good places to eat.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_4256-300x225.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-17251 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_4256-300x225-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Later in the day, I visited the London Eye. It is the worlds tallest observation wheel. I was able to get some great views of London while I was on it and saw London from a different point of view. The London eye has become a landmark in London&#8217;s skyline.<\/p>\n<p>I also had a chance to go to a National Football League game in London between the Jets and the Dolphins. While American Football is not one of the traditional sports in England, It was a cool feeling to be a part of something that was unusual to the English people. Unfortunately for the Dolphins, The Jets came out on top.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_4252-225x300.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-17252 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_4252-225x300-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_4332-300x300.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-17253 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_4332-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_4332-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_4332-300x300-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_4336-300x300.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-17254 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_4336-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_4336-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/IMG_4336-300x300-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Traveling around London has been exciting.
