For the past few weeks, I have used my Sunday afternoons to take long walks to the neighborhoods surrounding Bloomsbury. Today is rainy and chilly, but I didn't want the weather to affect my customary stroll, so I planned on just taking my umbrella and toughing it out. But after about ten minutes my shoes , socks and bottom 5 inches of my jeans are soaked, so I have returned to my room. I guess I should do some homework.
Here's a picture I took of the view out my dorm room window. Sad; rain.



My window looks out into the courtyard of International Hall. The glass atrium you see is the back side of the main entrance to the building off of Lansdowne Terrace. I am on floor 5- the top floor. (Floor 5 is really the 6th floor because in England the first floor is called the ground floor.) Looking into a courtyard isn't the best, but people across the hall from me look out over the street and have to deal with traffic noise, so I guess it could be worse.
