7/13/2016 0 Comments Abbey Road StudiosBy some miracle, I was not scheduled one class or excursion on this fine Wednesday. Though I originally planned to go to Brighton, I ultimately decided that may be better to save for a weekend and chose to explore London a bit more instead. So, I finally made the trip out to see Abbey Road Studios. As cliche as it is, I love the Beatles. I grew up with their music, blah blah. Anyway, this was very exciting for me. From Russel Square, it takes about 30min to get there by tube, but it only a short walk away from the St. Johns Wood station. The crosswalk is filled with family's trying to recreate the iconic Abbey Road album cover, some with their shoes off. Poor motorists trying to go on with their day are lined up waiting for a chance to get past them. Of course, I had to walk across. It was surreal to walk in the footsteps of such greatness, despite how touristy the place had become. The actual studios were closed to the public as they are still used. However, a shop opened up directly next door with all the Beatles merchandise a cliche fangirl can imagine.
