I plan to go in mid august of 2014 before I start school again (assuming I get into a graduate program) for 17 days (August 15- September 1) so this would allow me to stay for 3 weekends which would allow me to watch more games. I will be graduating this June 2013 and then I’ll be coming back for a semester. After that semester, I plan to work as many hours as possible from January to mid August so that I can go on this trip. I would like to go during August because the soccer season begins in mid August. The downfall about going to London in August is that August has the second highest rainfall amount in the year so  I will make sure to carry and umbrella similar to the one in the picture.  According to the soccer players and pundits, it rains randomly throughout the day. London also usually has 11-15 rainy days throughout a month so I need to pack my wardrobe accordingly. I will be going with my 2 best friends who I used to play soccer with. Both of them feel the same way about soccer like I do and they both have greater travelling experience than I do so they will be a huge help.
