HARRY POTTER!!

This location, a block from our hotel in London, seemed somehow familiar. Where have I heard about a coffee shop on Tottenham Court Road? I was keeping an eye out for a family of ginger kids when we got here. We would've gotten on the train to Hogwarts, but the Icelandic Volcano caused thestral and apparition delays and half the staff couldn't make it in, so they shut the school down. We had no idea a St. Mungo's actually existed! This was the Leadenhall Market, where Diagon Alley was filmed. We ate pizza there!

LOST!!

A statue of John Locke was our first encounter with a character from Lost. Just down the hall from the Locke statue in UCL, we found the preserved body of Locke's alter ego, Jeremy Bentham. The head is fake, but the rest is actually his corpse! His head is kept in a freezer upstairs. At The Rocket pub in London, we were issued bottle number 42. Was the bartender named Jacob? Scotland had this lovely Hume statue. Sadly, he was not wearing an unbuttoned blue shirt.
