Monday in London

Well, we have made it to day 3 on our journey, and it was amazing. We got up early and didn't stop until we couldn't run anymore. Take a look at Monday:



Here is the London Eye, which is basically the biggest and coolest Ferris Wheel. You get a in "pod" with about 10 other people and you slowly make your way around the wheel, which takes about 30 minutes. It gives you the most amazing views of London.



Here we are having a great time on the Eye. It was really the first day that we experienced typical British weather with cloudy skies, but by the afternoon it was beautiful and sunny. We really have lucked out with the weather thus far.



We then made our way over to the scary and deadly Tower of London. That was incredibly fun and we loved being inside this huge fortress. It had this amazing feeling to it that made you feel how things were back then. We loved listening to the Beefeaters and seeing the Crown Jewels. There is a lot to see and do. Here is a picture of us and the White Tower, otherwise known as the Bloody Tower. If you want to know why you will have to ask us later.



Just right across the way is Tower Bridge, not to be confused with the London Bridge that keeps falling down. London Bridge is actually right by our hotel but this is Tower Bridge which is the most recognizable bridge in London. Here is a picture of it



To finish up the day, we went over to the famous address of 221 Bakerstreet where Sherlock Holmes resides. Jason just loved that! We then ate out at a fancy Italian resteraunt and had the most amazing tiramasu! After that Jason spoiled me again and took to go see Wicked. I know we have already seen it when we were out in Chicago but I think I am addicted! It was incredible as usual but fun to hear the songs sung with a British accent! We are watching a cricket match on the telly right now as we are getting ready for bed and to have another adventure tomorrow! Goodnight!
