Most of the time we were trying to break the stereotype of the "dumb and loud" American. In general we did well with this. However, there was one student, whose name I will not divulge, who stated, "Oh wow! The bus drivers sit on the back of the bus, I think. Now that's talent. OOhhh!" Well, no. England is different, but not that different. The drivers do indeed sit in the front of the vehicle when they drive, not the back. Sorry to disappoint anyone else who may have had that same notion.
 

Truthfully, three days is not nearly enough time to experience all of London. However, Reading is only a 20 minute train ride away, so further exploring is certainly a possibility.
