• Day 2: London

    June 26, 2024 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    Today was another day of taking it all in! The weather here has been exceptionally hot and muggy, but we were determined to push on🥵😰🥵😰
    After brekky, we jumped back onto the hop on and off bus. The ride felt like forever, and our nerves had a workout as the traffic here is crazy!!!!!
    First stop was Regent Street and Piccadilly Circus where we were blown away again by the beautiful buildings! Shopping was actually of lesser importance!
    The next stop was London Bridge and Tower of London! The engineer in charge of the whole project at the time of building. Was only 28 years of age!!! Here, we had some fun poses walking over the bridge. I wanted to walk along the top of the bridge with a glass bottom, but Carol-lynne was too scared 😱
    The history of The Tower of London was just fascinating. Not to mention the sheer size of it all!!
    The next stop was Westminster Abbey!!! A real pinch me moment!! Unfortunately, we were just too late as the Abbey was closed for visitors😪 however, standing outside and marvelling at the architecture was just as much of a privilege!!!
    Finally we had some time for shopping, al be it that were exhausted from the heat and all the walking, but a girl needs to do what a girl needs to do!!!!😂😂
    Onto Oxford Street and a visit to Mark's and Spencer!! Budget blown!!!
    Met up for an Italian dinner in Belgravia with a friend of mum's. Then, back to our hotel for a well-earned rest!
