The very free British Museum - let me tell you it is SUCH a relief to get to go somewhere for free
Again, British Museum
And let thy feet millenniums hence be set in midst of knowledge - alfred lord tennyson
Fish & Chips with Vinegar!
Um, why are you copying Rome, England? Anyway, thats Nelson's column, he was killed during the Battle of Trafalgar
Trafalgar Square
I think this is a museum
Gateway to St. James Park & Buckingham Palace
Oh hello, Ben.
British flags & daffodils in St. James Park
More of St. James
St. James flowers
close up
I'm telling you, these pictures aren't that great - its the sky that makes the difference. Anyway, thats the statue of Victoria(?) who looks kind of like an angel and thats Buckingham Palace behind her.
Sunset in London
The gate of Canada, I think
Victoria looking Victorious
I think this was the gate of Africa? I actually forget
The guards, who I honestly did not remember being so weird...
They are quite small, they just have hats that boost their height.
A unicorn somewhere in London
I think maybe someone from Mexico was coming because they had up all these Mexican flags...also, notice Big Ben
There I am in front of my little palace :)
Non lo so.
Westminster?
There I am :)
Martin Luther King Jr!
Westminster
Westminster looking a little creepy
Again, Westminster
I love this picture - a double decker bus & Big Ben
Parliament
What a lovely gate.
Oh hello, Big Ben
That sky really made these pictures
Big Ben really is pretty big - by the way, did you know that Big Ben is really named for the giant bell within and not for the size of the edifice or the size of the clock? Thanks, Martine for that bit of knowledge.
B&W of the Thames
Parliament on the Thames lit up at night
Westminster Bridge & Big Ben
Tower Bridge at night
London Bridge might have fallen down, but there is a new one currently standing. Thats my proof.
There it is! Did you know London Bridge is red at night??
Tower Bridge again
St. Pauls?
More of St. Pauls
Oh hmm, I'm just going to make a phone call now
Oh great, paparazzi!
St. Pauls from the front
St. Pauls
Hello double decker bus
Goodbye, double decker bus
Martine (In case you can't tell, I'm getting REALLY sick of writing captions for all of these damn pictures)
We went to Fleet Street! Oh okay so see there are three signs? One that says Fleet Street, one that says eat and one that is really bright and you can't see? Look at the next picture to see what that one says:
Sweeny Sweeny Sweeny Todd - the demon barber of Fleet Street!
Again, not so sure what this is...
I think Martine says this is a famous pub
This is NOT a trash can - its a mailbox
Twinings, yum
More Twinings
Remember in the Ireland pictures when I was talking about Martine's summer house? Well, this is the dungeon in my summer house.
And theres my house :) But don't worry, only for the summer.
Thats our hostel, it was pretty awesome.
Mind the gap, please.
