London is an amazing city. Once again verifies that I will never live in such a large city but was still a great experience and best of all, my dad met me there and we got to spend a lot of time together. We went to a rugby match, saw a British comedy show, went to Wimbledon, saw Windsor Castle, walked around most of London, learns the Tube like the back of our hand and had some wonderful pub beer and food!
Here are some of the best pictures from our excursion.
Buckingham Palace. This is where the Queen spends most of her time during the week.
Big Ben Clock Tower
On the right is the Parliament Building and on the left is Big Ben; both across the Thames River.
Wimbledon. Simply brilliant. Smaller than I had hoped, but still an incredible thing to see.
Pops
We also went to a rugby match between Cambridge and Oxford...
This is my dad and I outside of Windsor Castle. this is where the Queen lives on most weekends. It was spectacular and probably my favorite thing that I've seen in all of my time in Europe.
The flag when we got to Windsor Castle...
...and the flag when we left, this is the royal flag that is flown when the Queen is home!
This is NOT London Bridge.. it is Tower Bridge... London Bridge is the bridge that I'm standing on while taking this picture.. it is JUST A NORMAL BRIDGE!!! and I feel it is my duty to tell the whole world about this misconception...
Lastly, the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace.
