London Eye

London theater

What's interesting is that this building was voted the World's Ugliest Building by some architects. I guess it's nicer on the inside...

View from the ferry

This is Blackfriar's Bridge, so named because the pillars are supposed to look like pulpits and it was dedicated to a group of monks.

Millenium Bridge and St. Paul's Cathedral

Exact replica of Globe Theater

Another bridge

Winchester! I don't know why this sign was here...

Replica of a ship that sailed around the world

Reminds me of a pirate ship!

"London Bridge is falling down..."

I wish it would, because this bridge was very ugly!

Hey
Emily I am so glad that you got to go on the London Eye it is breath taking up there and you can get amazing pictures. And for the Tower of London I really think you and your mom would enjoy it. Its a very good place to visit. Make sure if you do you see the Crowned Jewels, which is the jewelery and crowns that the kings and queens wear or wore. They are so beautiful. I like how you took a picture of the pigeon. I am terrified of birds and I remember I thought there were alot in London. Well wait till Italy. They are just covering the ground. It was really scary for me. London is a huge town with so much to see. But it is awesome to get to experience. Well its greating hearing that your having an AWESOME time. Talk to you later and I can't wait to read more.
