London at a Glance

On my second trip to London, I was able to see a lot of sites. Because it was a Sunday, and because I was, for the majority of the day...um..er..ah...lost, I didn't go inside any of these amazing buildings. However, now that I officially know where they are, I will be traveling back to tour inside instead of tour (AKA: wander in search of a site that is actually on the opposite side of town... darn, poor directional skills...) outside. Here are some pics during the wander!

Ok, so there is actually a pretty neat story behind the above and below picture. Jamie and I were walking, lost, and came across these gorgeous arches that were tucked below this old looking building. Curious, we went through these arches and it opened up to this! It was similar to an old town square, surrounded by buildings. We could hear cheerful music and laughter coming from in between those two little, white buildings. As we got closer, we could see people ice skating. We never would have run across this London gem had we not been lost.

Here is where I'm headed this Saturday! The ever-fabulous Lion King musical! :D

Beautiful Covent Garden!

This sign was in Covent Garden and it reminded me of my brother, for obvious reasons. :) Love you, Ben! :D

This is Victoria Station. I take a train from my quaint town up to Victoria Station in London. It only takes me about 30 minutes.

A pretty gated park not far from Buckingham Palace.

Below are pictures from Buckingham Palace! We weren't able to walk through, as it is only open to the public during the summer.

This random British man decided to join in on the tourist fun. haha

Harrod's at night!

This trip was fun of adventure and beautiful sites along the way. Hopefully next time I won't be quite as lost... :) Either way, there will be great pictures. :D

Miss you all!
