London First Day

We made it to London and had quite a first day. We had rain, sleet, snow, thunder, lightening, clouds, and finally some sun! We made our way to Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, and the London Eye. Our apartment here is RIGHT next to Hyde Park and you can actually see Kensington Palace from our street!


Tobi up in the London Eye looking at the Thames and Big Ben. By the time we went up the weather stared to clear!


London Eye from across the River Thames. The sun was out and the skies had FINALLY cleared! 


Looking out on the Thames and the car in front of us on the London Eye. Sponsored by Coca Cola (of course)! 


Big Ben from the London Eye. Yes! We got to hear it ring! 


Seems that this bloke got into a bit of trouble. Four Bobbies and handcuffs to boot! 


We visited 10 Downing Street. Seems that they would not let us in to see the Prime Minister.


Tobi in front of the Gardens by Buckingham Palace. The sun was actually out! 


Front of Buckingham Palace. The Queen was indisposed at the time. I take that to mean that she was on the potty! All told we walked over 11 miles today!


Yes, had to take this picture for Paige!


The iconic London phone booth. This is right before it started sleeting!


And of course, we got to see Harry Potter!

More adventures tomorrow!
