London, baby!!!

My first day in London. 🇬🇧 I touched down in London bright and early at 6:50 a.m., full of excitement (and a little jet lag). After dropping may bags at the hotel, I set off to once again explore my favourite city in the world.

My first stop was a peaceful morning walk through Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park. The air was cool and fresh, and it felt good just to stretch my legs after the long flights.

From there, I made my way to Buckingham Palace. I said a quick hello to King Charles, and then crossed over to St James’s Park. I sat by the lake for a while watching the animals and people, and just taking in the amazing view framed by beautiful golden leaves.

After a short stroll later, I passed through Horse Guards Parade and on towards Big Ben. Seeing it up close is always a bit surreal!

Next, I hopped on the Tube and headed east to the Tower of London and the iconic Tower Bridge.

I decided to keep the adventure going and made my way to St Paul’s Cathedral, weaving through the city streets and stopping often just to look around. By the time I got there, I could definitely feel how far I’d walked! 😂😂😂

Dinner was a burger and mountain of chips from Five Guys on Baker Street, not very British but exactly what I needed. When I checked my phone, it said that I’d done more than 30,000 steps - no wonder my feet hurt.

A full first day in London, one for the books. 😄Læs mere
