Day 30 - London part 2 🇬🇧

Wow day 30!! Jeepers must be time to go home 🙈

We did it, we made it into London and home by ourselves! 🤣🙈

Day started with the train from Dorking to London. We had to hop off and navigate our way to another line to get to Westminster. Here we walked out of the underground straight up to Big Ben 😍 not actually called Big Ben, only the bell is! Fun fact. Victoria tower is it's actual name!

We headed straight for the London eye. I had pre purchased fast track tickets as we hate lines 🙈 and it was well worth the extra money! We were able to walk straight on and the other line was huge!
London eye was very cool it takes 32 minutes to go right the way around. Awesome views of the city, a must do but something you'd only do once.

We jumped on the Thames boat hop on hop off and headed for the tower bridge. We did have an issue with our ticket but the lovely lady overrode it for us!
On the boat ride we had live commentary which was great we learnt heaps as we passed famous places.
By the time we got to the towers it was nearly 1pm and we were starving! Found a nice pub and had a delicious lunch. We deliberated for some time as to what to do next. We were all pretty knackered but also it was a long way to come to do the eye, boat ride and to turn back home. So spare of the moment we paid for tickets to the Tower of London, and I'm bloody glad we did (kelsey not so much 🤣)
This was very interesting, we started with and hour guided tour and our tour guide was brilliant. He explained how they get the job, you must service for more than 22 years and he has met the king and attended queen funeral and these guys actually live at the tower! Such a nice bloke.
After our Tour we headed to the Crown Jewels, this was awesome to see! 👑 unfortunately no photos to be taken.
It was kool to see friendly Raven's all around the castle .
After a quick refreshment we walked most of the other parts of the tower. Incredible history, cannot believe some of the towers were built in the 1200's! This place has been a Zoo, a Kings house, Prison, torture camber, quite amazing really. All in all we spent 2.5hours here.
It was now rush hour on the tube 🥴 so we took the boat back to westminster to kill some time then took the underground and train back to Dorking. Home at 740pm we all had and exhausting but good day 😍 Czytaj więcej
