Monday morning it was time to take the train and the Tube into London. So we "Minded the Gap" and made our way into downton London. We first went up and saw Big Ben which was a lot bigger than I thought, walked by the House Of Parliament, and walked over to Westminster Abbey. We toured throught the Abbey and it was really cool to see all the burial places of famous people like Queen Elizabeth, and many other kings and queens. They also had a poets corner were some of the poets are buried or had a memorial in their names. After we toured the Abbey we went back over to the London Eye which is a huge ferris wheel type and saw all of London. After the eye we went and ate lunch and then went on the Double Decker Bus tour so we could see the rest of England since we didn't have much time. After the Double Decker Bus tour we made our way back to the Tube and on the Train to take us back to Surrey area. For dinner Carolee said she would make us anything we wanted and all we wanted was a grilled cheese and ham and tomato soup for our last meal with them!
On the Tour we got to see The Tower of London, The London Bridge, the side of Buckingham palace, and many other great sites. Ryan had to take this picture because I told him his bright red shoes were a dead give away that he was an American, so when he saw this Canadian women with her bright blue running shoes he had to take a picture!
