London was amazing! The last few days have flown by. We took a hop-on-hop-off Bus Tour of the City. It was a great way to see all of the major sites, and enjoy the sunshine :) That night we went to Evensong at Westminster Abby.

The next day we had big plans for site-seeing, but accidently slept in. It turned out to be a good thing, though because we picked up some bread & cheese and had a wonderful picnic in Hyde Park. We ate in the Rose Garden and enjoyed a nice walk. After lunch, we did the Westminster Abby tour. We got to see the graves of Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin & Charles Dickens to name a few. After that we went to the show - Jersey Boys.

Today we had a full day of London sites. We started with an audio tour of the Tower of London. The crown jewels were amazing! We then did the Tower Bridge Experience and got some great views of the city. We then walked over the Millennium bridge (3 times). We were really bummed out that St. Paul's Cathedral was closed to the public for the weekend. However, we were able to go to Evensong that evening and experience the beauty of the church. After St. Paul's, we wandered around the city and found our way to Belgo Central. Just as recommended by Brian & Lisa, we ordered the steamer clams & creme-brulee. It was super good, and a great atmosphere. Here is a big THANK YOU to Brian & Lisa for the great recommendation.

We're headed out tomorrow morning to start our tour in Amsterdam. We are excited to take a ride in a famous black London cab. (We're not too excited that the ride is at 5:30am).

We're super excited for our tour to start. Hopefully we'll be able to write again soon.
