London

Yesterday we were in London and it was amazing. We figured out the underground train system, bought a ticket, then took off! We stopped at Westminster Abbey where we had lunch, a hot dog from a street vendor...ha! We took tons of pictures of the Abbey, Parliament Square, St. Margerets Cathedral, then we stumbled upon the classic red telephone booths and took the cheesy tourists pictures! We got back on the underground and went to Tower of London. It was absolutely fantastic. When we got off the train I felt like I had arrived on the set of some crazy middle-aged film festival. We toured the castle where we got to see the royal jewlery (one of the diamonds was 530 karats...holy heavy!), bloody tower, and even a sword fight. It ended up being a fabulous day!
