Picture Post

Here is the pictures as promised! These pictures document what I have been up to for the past couple of days. Please enjoy the beauty that I have found here in London! I am so happy I am here and I'm having so much fun! 

Big Ben at night 

Tower of London

 London Bridge

The pet ravens they had at London Tower. Kinda weird, but cool I guess. According to Wikipedia there are always at least 6 ravens at the White Tower because if there aren't there is a belief that the Kingdon will fall. Pretty cool

 An exhibit in the White Tower. These horses were next to a suit of armor of different kings. The Horses were creepy. Just saying.

 Chapel within the White Tower

 Please notice the guy fawkes saying

 Westminster Abbey

 Me in front of Westminster Abbey

Inside Westminster Abbey... the cloister. Totally from a Harry Potter movie... pretty certain anyway.

We also went to see the crown jewels but weren't allowed to take any pictures. The jewels were enormous and super cool. They almost seemed like they were fake because they were so big. On the scepter there is the Star of Africa... I think that's what it's called anyway... and it's over a 3,000 carat diamond! How stellar is that. It was seriously huge and gorgeous! Going through all the crown jewels and talking to some of the guides there makes me want to brush up on my British Monarchy history. It's all super fascinating. I'll definitely be doing that the next couple of days.

I lied yesterday. Tomorrow we are going to see the guard change and also going to a play "The Woman in Black". It's supposed to be a scary play. I'm super excited to see it! 

Anyway, that's what has been going on. Loving everything so far. Soon I think I'm going to post something about my love for UK money and their coins and probably the tube. It's so easy to use! Anyway, over and out!
