Yesterday felt like it went by really quickly. First Kyle and I went to church with his family, since it was Good Friday, at Westminster Cathedral (not Westminster Abbey. ha) That was interesting, since it was a Catholic service. I had never been to a Catholic service before, and so all the standing and kneeling and sitting was kind of confusing. They sang the entire passion of the Christ story, with different people singing different parts. We stood for the whole thing, which I can understand since if we had been sitting most of the congregation would have been asleep. There were so many people there! We got to the church about an hour early, and I'm glad we did, because by 2:30 the seats were completely full and people were standing on the sides and in the back. I'm glad I went, it was definitely an experience.
By the time the service was over it was 4:30, so Kyle and I went back to the flats and the family did some more sightseeing. Then we met again for dinner at a pizza place in Notting Hill, which was nice. It's a really posh, upper-class neighborhood, so the room where we ate was filled with kids called "Lilly" and "Juliana" talking really loudly about "oh moi GASH, reeeally?" The food was good though.
