So I will update you all on what is currently going on in my life and how things are looking for the summer. As most of you know, I am a member of the International Folk Dance Company at BYU, and presently I am a member of the Spring Performing Arts Company (or SPAC as you will hear me call it), which basically serves as the Back-up Tour Team for the Company. (I also recently tried ou...
The London Temple! It is so beautiful! At the gates of Buckingham Palace Gardens at Westminster Abbey Big Ben! Brook and I standing on the Millenium Bridge. This is the same bridge that is used in the 6th Harry Potter film, and it also crosses the Thames. Pretty cool!
