We've had 3 full days in London now and feel like we've seen a bit of it. Im pretty tired so here's a quick overview of what we've been doing..


Day 1 (Tues) - arrived at Heathrow at 8am and tried to stay awake all day. Celia met us at the airport and escorted us on the tube/bus to thier flat. Went to Battersea park which was really nice, and saw squirrels for the first time.





Day 2 (Wed) - Navigated the London transport system and made our way to Oxford Street where I went nuts in all the shops. LOVED Top Shop, tried on heaps of fabulous stuff but didn't buy anything cos its pretty expensive. If we have $$ left when we come back ill def get some stuff though! picked up a few cheaps dresses (2 for 12 pounds) from a trashy shop. Walked around Soho, just generally taking in the atmosphere etc. Phil got a bit sick of all the shopping but when he found it unbearable I sent him off to Borders to read a National Geographic. Loved looking in the supermarkets, esp Marks & Spencers - every kind of pre-packaged meals/sammies/salads you could imagine.





Day 3 (Thurs - today) - Met up with Rob (my Uncle) and looked at heaps of sights. Walked along the Thames and saw the Parliament buildings, Tate Museum, London Eye etc, had lunch in a pub, fish n chips n mushy peas! Walked along the Tower Bridge, looked at the Tower of London. Went to St Pauls Cathedral which was BEAUTIFUL.





So all in all having a fantastic time! I'm off to Paris to see Sophie tomorrow, and Phil is staying here and going to lots of Museums.
