We made it to London! After a lovely breakfast with family and friends, 2 movies, 2
meals, 2 planes, several TV shows and some sleeping, we got our very first stamps on
our passports and entered the United Kingdom!
We didn't waste any time getting to know the city and
headed straight to
Prince Albert's Pub in Notting Hill for lunch. After freshening up at our hotel and power naps, our entire group took a double decker to the London Eye. When we got off of the bus, we were face to face with Big Ben. It is absolutely breathtaking!
The London Eye was fabulous! We could see the entire city... The palace, Parliament, St. Paul's Cathedral, Big Ben, The River Thames, double deckers, black taxis... everything just like in the movies! We ended our day with supper in Chinatown near Picadilly Circus followed by gelato outside our hotel. Class starts tomorrow!
So glad you had a safe trip and what a fabulous start to your big adventure "across the pond". Keep posting pictures and sharing your story!
