So im going to london in like 2 weeks.  im going to see my brother whose taking a semester abroad there.  i will be staying in his dorm with him while my parents are staying in a hotel nearby, so we will probably be going out almost every night.  so that being said, anyone know of any cool stuff to do, aside from the touristy things like big ben, abby road, and parliment.  his college is right in the heart of downtown so it should be pretty sick either way.

oh, and if any london nsers see a kid stumbling around late at night in a crochet'd hat and an ozone coc hoodie, hit me up

im not quite sure to be honest.  its about 10 at night here, meaning its 3 am over there, so my brothers probably too drunk to speak, so ill call him tomorrow and get back to you on that one.

im 17 and ill be there a solid week, but my brothers 20 so im pretty sure i can get in most places.  from my understanding, pubs are really relaxed and i shouldnt have a hard time getting trashed there, but there might be some places thatll be hard to get into.
