Pics from London

Well day one in London was a busy day!! We walked through Hyde Park, saw the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace, went on the London Eye and to Madame Tussauds wax museum. By 6pm we were both shattered so had granny tea (some really awesome Indian from down the road near our hotel - yes wade voluntarily ate Indian) and went to bed. Some pics from the day:

Wade in Green Park on the way to Buckinham Palace and the first red bull of many on this trip



The changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace - we couldn't believe how many people were there (1,000's)







The London Eye and views of London




Madame Tussauds




Day 2 and we had to swap hotels. We got lost and walked way further than we needed to but all good now and checked in ready for our tour which starts tomorrow. From here we caught the tube to Covent Garden - where there are some cool markets and shops. We are now in Picadilly in an internet cafe writing this post! Here are some pics from today so far:

  2. Looks like fun so far. You sure do love your Red Bull though. Careful in Amsterdam, I know someone who paid 3.5 Euro for a glass of tap water there, no doubt that was "Tourist Tax" though she also coudln't find the red light district... from what I've heard, that's saying something!
