Ah yes...the city of London


You got it. That is a double decker bus and boy are they fun to ride in! From the top it looks like you are going to hit everyone and everything in its path, and you are pretty close to it! Most of the streets are less than 4 cars wide (mind you there are cars parked on either side of the street) with 2 small lanes in the middle. Imagine...you in your little BMW and this big boy coming right at you! Most of the Londoners response is to lay on their horn as they BARELY skim past us. Its a heart attack waiting to happen!


Thats Kelly with one of the Bobbies who is guarding the Prime Ministers house. His house is in the middle of the hustle and bustle of downtown...and yes that is an icecream in her hand.

























Thats us with Big Ben in the background. We just learned that the big bell that rings on the hour has been replaced for the first time in almost 150 years.











The Westminster Abby church is absolutly breathtaking. We hope to make it back there soon so we can look around inside.
