London Town

Greetings

After more work we once again got tired of saving and decided to head to London for a few days to try and take in the sights of the city. The first things we noticed when we got to London was that there were tourists everywhere. Cardiff in general doesnt make it onto many peoples lists of must see places and tourists are fairly uncommon, while London is packed full of them. Happily snapping away on thier cameras and jostling to get into the vest position to see what every it is that everyone else has stopped to look at. During our time in London we got to see heaps of things however the tours for all the sights start at around £20 which is $50 Australian and vary in quality.

One thing that amazes you about London is the age of everything, many of the buildings seem ancient expecially when you compare them with Australia.

The best tour we did was of the tower of london which takes over an hour and the tour takes you right throught the tower and explains lots of little details to you. The trip was also a good chance to catch up with trionas friend Claire and her boyfriend John who have been travelling for 2.5 years.


There isnt really much point of trying to explain all the sights of london so I will just post a heap of photos and hopefully the will explain where we went and what we saw on our trip.
