We went on a little walk the last evening we were in London. You can't leave London without seeing Big Ben. The confusing this is getting off at the Big Ben tube station! There are like 7 different exits that take you to 7 different parts of Parliament Square! We seem to always take a different one every time we go! This time, we ended up on the wrong side of Big Ben. The cool part was we realized the London Eye was so close, when we used to think it was too far of a walk! We decided to ride it for the first time. There were so many awesome views of downtown London. If I knew we were riding it, I would have brought my telescopic lens so we could get some really cool close up shots, but I wasn't prepared. We did get TONS of pictures, though!
It was well worth the trip! If we ever go again, we'll definitely make time for a ride on the London Eye!
We for sure couldn't leave until we got 50,000 pictures of Big Ben. (Okay, maybe not 50,000. We got more like 50.) Here are a few of our favorites.
Now that we're done with our England posts, we will go back to inconsistent blogging. Hopefully something exciting happens around here. The weather forecast calls for thunder storms over the next couple of days. Maybe the other half of our tree will get struck by lightning and fill our backyard with debris! (Just like the last thunderstorm!)
