Hello London!!!!!
Hey guys. Have a few quick minutes before our "night before we leave" meeting, so thought I'd add a quick update.
We arrived in London after 2 VERY long flights with next to no sleep. Slept most of first day we were here, except for a brief outing to the supermarket for a couple of supplies and to find some dinner.
A quick summary of what we've done in our 3 packed days of sightseeing:
Big Ben and the Houses of Parliment
Westminister Abby
London Eye - AWESOME views, even on a typical cloudy London day
Picadilly Circus
Covent Garden
dinner in Soho
Tower of London
Tower Bridge (the famous one you see on all the postcards)
Buckingham Palace (Lizzy was too busy to see us so we watched her guards changing!
A West End show - We Will Rock You - was absolutely AWESOME!!!!!
lunch in Chinatown
Harrods - far too expensive for me but worth having a look to see how the OTHER half live
British Museum (just like any other museum - but it was free so why not!)
Notting Hill - found a "key garden" but not the famous one from the movie
So as you can see, we've done quite a bit.
My internet time has nearly run out, so hope all is well with everyone!
Don't know when I'll next get on here as our Contiki starts tomorrow and it will be ALL SYSTEMS GO! Maybe in 26 days time when the Contiki has finished!
Photos will have to wait quite a while as there is no where to download them to the computer to be uploaded to the website. Will let you know when I have uploaded photos, otherwise you may have to wait til we get home.
Bye for now!!!
