Some London highlights

The last few weeks have flown by. Paris and London were so packed we hardly had time for more than sleeping and exploring.

London began with last minute change of residence to our first hotel of the journey and a place our girls felt like royalty.



We had all been greatly anticipating heaps of clotted cream and strawberry jam on fresh sones and we were not disappointed (which is not easy with so much hype).

One Sunday we took our royal limo to buckingham palace and watched the changing of the guard in it's full color...











Westminster, big ben, tower bridge, oh my...







Katherine going down to the ministry of magic...


London bridge staying up for now...



A yummy bite from the bag o nails...




Then off to the bloody tower and through traitors gate...







On Monday we took the train to Hampton Court, home to Henry the VIII. And lucky us, he was in that day...





A stop for homework before the train...





Th kings men wrestling...


Anne Boleyn riding with her sister and maid...


And a may pole dance organized by the king...





Don't forget the London eye...



And a relaxing afternoon in St James park...
