Day 7- Last night in the UK

It was our last day in London and we had it all to ourselves. Gina talked me and a few of the others to going to Kennington Park to go see the Peter Pan statue. After that, I we headed back to Leicester Square to do a little souvenir shopping. WE met up with Andres and Liz and all headed over to the restaurant for dinner with everyone else. To my pleasant surprise, the food was pretty good. But I had eaten a big lunch at T.G.I. Friday's only a few hours before that ( I couldn't take British food any longer). WE hung out at the restaurant a little after everyone else had already left while he had a few beers with the Oklahoma kids. Then we all took the Tube back to the hotel. It was Tamika's birthday that night so a few of us decided to go out to a night club. After an hour of waiting for everyone else to get ready and meet in the lobby we all left and headed once again to Leicester Square. There, a club promoter approached us on the street and told us he could get the nine of us into the club without waiting in line and he gave us all free drink coupons. I'm not really a club scene kind of guy but it was alot of fun. Everyone was dancing and singing (most of us very poorly). After being at the club for a few hours (which felt more like the blink of an eye), we haggled with two cab drivers about the fare it would cost to take us back to the hotel. We got back to the hotel and ran around like fools for a short time and then passed out. It was one hell of a way to end the trip.
