London Day 4

We started out the day by heading to the Tower of London. My sister waited in a pub while I took in the tour. I went through it really fast, but I must say it was the coolest thing I have seen in Brittan. The Crown Jewels were especially cool.

After that we hurried to catch our "Flight" on the London Eye. It took around half an hour and I got some really good pictures. We headed over to were Big Ben sits and took some photos. An interesting fact is that the tower is not called Big Ben. Big Ben is instead the bell used for the clock. The tower is St. Stephens tower.

For lunch we ate at eat. Then it was on the train and back to Thorpe. The train ride took around 40 minutes. We caught a cab back to my sisters house. The cabby was very interested in hearing about the game the day previous.

After we got back my sister made dinner. It was decent, although I do not understand why anyone would want their soup pureed, it really is a crime.

Just hung around and read for the rest of the evening.
