Hooray, we made it to London, but not without adventure. Our flight was again delayed from Holland so we arrived late at night in London. The hotel we made reservations was closed by the time we got there late and so we had to find another hotel. The best part was the breakfast that we ate the next morning which was truly english with eggs, toast, sausage, baked beans, hash browns, cooked tomatoes, and pastries. We enjoyed seeing the sights again, especially at nighttime. Big Ben is amazing at night and the London skyline is way pretty too! We were able to take a tour through Southern England that took us to Stonehenge, Bath, and Windsor Castle. Windsor Castle is where the Royal Family actually lives...not at Buckingham Palace in London. At the time we were there, the Queen was hosting a ceremony for existing knights that are given a higher honor, called The Order of the Garter. So security was high and we saw lots of Englishmen and women in nice suits, top hats, and big hats with feathers and other stuff for the women. It was fun! For lunch, we ate roast beef and Yorkshire pudding, with bread pudding for dessert! We also ate in a traditional pub where Tyson enjoyed the Fish and chips! We really enjoyed the English traditional food! The last night in London we saw LION KING in the theater district which was absolutely amazing! Cheerio!

Did you really enjoy the food? I was not a fan! Your pictures make me so sad because I want to go back so bad. It sounds like you got to see quite a bit while you were there. I'm glad you made it!
