I meant to write while I was there and let everyone know how things were going but we were only in the room to sleep basically and for a good reason. Not only because we were out having a blast but because our hotel was... well not what we would consider a B&B to be especially in London. It did have free wifi though so I could send Wyatt a couples emails since I couldn't use my phone. Anyway shall we begin?......
I won't go into too much as it is rather difficult and I will probably just discuss the pictures
Day 1
Mom, Jesse and I arrive around 11:45ish London time. (Jesse left the states 8 hours after us mind you and he arrived only 30 minutes after us, not really fair) We headed to the "Bed & Breakfast" to drop off our stuff before going out to see things and ended up getting lost twist after we got off the tube. Just goes to show that pictures will directions don't help if they aren't applicable pictures!!!!
Finally, we made it and headed out to see the city. First and foremost we had to visit THE department store.... Harrods! That was AMAZING!!! They didn't stop people from taking pictures but I felt awkward taking pictures of the massive fresh foods section. I got over that fear once I found the hats though.... as you can see
The girl Jesse sat next to on the plane told him about a pub she worked at for 6 months and recommended we go eat there it was aptly named Shakespeare's. Dad met us when he finished with his meeting for the day.
Next came the big adventures. We walked Past the Royal Mews, which you could guess by smell rather than sight, and on to Buckingham Palace. It was great to actually be able to see it. Last time we came there were so many people you couldn't see anything.
The Royal Mews and Buckingham Palace
Lastly we rounded out the day with a trip to Big Ben and West Minster Abby. Again I was excited to get to the Abby while there was still light unfortunately my old 35mm camera wasn't so good at taking pictures of big things at night.
We definitely slept well that night as we prepared for the following days events!
I must leave you now, but I will soon return to tell more of my wonderful journey to Great Britain!
Enjoy and Stay tuned!
