Day 2 - More or less...

---

Today we decided to visit Marks and Spencer to buy us both a warm coat! Very cold here today, about 5 C I think. We only got lost once or twice(Mark says we weren't lost, just going slightly in the wrong direction). We rode on the top floor of a red double decker bus which was fun. The public transport here is amazing, why people have cars in London is beyond me... you can get anywhere on the trains and if you can't you take the bus.

We visited the Museum of Natural History and Victoria and Albert Museum. It's hard to imagine that these buildings were built before Australia was even thought of let alone discovered. Some of the things in there just blow you away. We've put some pictures on.

Tomorrow we are doing a Double Decker bus tour of London. You can hop on and hop off whereever you like so that should be fun. We'll let you know!! More pics to follow.
