Day 1 in London


Today, we took numerous tours of London and familiarized ourselves with this awesome city! We had breakfast at our hotel and afterwards, we went on a coach bus and took a tour of London and it's architecture with our super rad and cool tour guide, Barry. Not only did Barry show us the diverse sites of London, like Buckingham palace, he educated us on a variety of topical subjects, like how the exquisite (adjective given by Ms. Gerber) Panderson has great Anglo-Saxon legs, how me must roll our R's, and that Paris Hilton is a sloane ranger. Afterwards, we went to the supermarket and picked up some sandwiches for lunch. We had a lovely picnic by the River Thames where a lot of pigeons joined us, and then went on a boat tour of the city and saw many bridges. When we got off the boat, we went to the Tower of London. My group got to see the Crown Jewels of England (they were super shiny) and many varied torture devices used in the prisons. Afterwards, we went and got Japanese food! Once dinner was over, we took a tour of Old London, where our nice tour guide Fiona told us about the London fire and diseases like the Plague. When we were done, we took the Tube back to our hotel and enjoyed a nice ride while we chatted with one another! All in all, it was a great day, and I can't wait to see what tomorrow in London brings!

After waking up and eating a delicious breakfast we went on a guided tour on a bus with an amazing tour guide named Barry. Barry was full of jokes. We bought a lunch 
to eat later and proceeded to Buckingham Palace. Afterwards we took a boat tour of the River Thames and got off at the Tower of London. My group went to see the Crown Jewels, Royal Beasts, and torture devices. After dinner at Wagomama's we ended our day on another fascinating tour of London surrounding themes of plague, fire and blitz.

Today was a swell day in the tumultuous town of London, England. First we ate breakfast at the Millenium Hotel. Then we went on a bustling bus tour  with Barry, our terrific tour guide. We picked up lunch at a grocery store Barry mentioned, then stopped by Buckingham Palace to take pictures. After that, we were swept off our feet by a breathtaking boat tour. Kim almost cried when a pigeon landed on deck and started waddling towards her. We also bonded with a few great lads who shared our love for fidget spinners. Then, the boat dropped us off at the Tower of London. There were different displays, such as the Crown Jewels and the Royal Animal Exhibit, but Maya and my's favorite were the torture devices. Finally, we went to dinner at Wagamaamam and shortly after, went on a walking tour around London with our new tour guide, Fiona! We also bonded with a few great lads who shared our love for hardcore parkour. All in all, it was a dank, dope day in lovely, luscious London!
