Long Live the Queen!

London, UK

Thursday we visited London  – what a whirlwind day! It was the warmest day in London this year and it was gorgeous. We started the day with a walking tour and saw the changing of the guards – coolest thing ever! Our tour guide was phenomenal and took us on an hour and a half excursion before we hopped on The Original Tour bus to see the city. We saw Piccadilly Circus, The National Gallery, Trafalgar Square, St. James’s Palace, Ritz Hotel, Hyde Park, Westminster Abbey, Big Ben and Parliament, St Paul’s Cathedral (where Margaret Thatcher’s funeral was held), the Tower of London, & Kensington Palace among many other popular sites. Did you know that Sean Connery & Roger Moore who both played James Bond are neighbors in London?!

We ended the tour with evening pictures of Buckingham Palace followed by a traditional Fish and Chips dinner at The Sherlock Holmes Pub.
