Whirlwind London Tour

Lilly and I woke pretty early, so decided not to fluff about and get straight into London to soak up the sights. I got to see the changing of the guard- and had awesome spots to take photos as well. Lilly just squeaked and shrieked most of the day. 

We got on the 15 bus as well as the 73 to check out all the landmarks. We got off to walk through St James Park and yep.. I saw squirrels.. I'll post photos next just for them.
So delighted with all the horses and the Royal Guard at the Palace.
After seeing Big Ben and the House of Commons, we hopped over to the Tower.. And then over to the National Gallery to check out some famous paintings
The big finale for the day was to go to the theatre.. Awesomeness!! Will do a seperate post on that one

Muss Lill and I backpacking



Backpackers on the move

And this is when you wonder if you can dump the lot and travel with a toothbrush.. But we need it all!! Cold and misty in London. I woke to the sounds if blackbirds..just beautiful. Just about to head into the centre and check out the sights and sites.. Hope to see the changing if the guard. To my embarrassment , in the five years I'd lived in the UK, I never saw it...
