LLL - Living London Life

3 words... I LOVE LONDON! Ok, so maybe 3 words might not describe how amazing London is, but London is incredible. It is one of my favorite places I've ever been. Sure, I acted like a tourist, I took my platform 9 and 3/4 picture, I took pictures of big ben and the london eye, I took pictures in the red telephone booths, I took thousands of pictures. I also went to Westminster Abbey, London Tower, London bridge, St. Paul's Cathedral, Buckingham and Kennsington Palace. But I also learned a ton about British history, ate food from all around the world, and got to spend time with good friends.

Westminster Abbey
The first day, Gabi and I went explored London. We had both been traveling all night, but we pushed through our tiredness! We went to the Camden market, got amazing coffee off the side of the road, got poured on in true London fashion. That night we were able to meet up with my friend Erin and her boyfriend who took us to a pub, chinese food, and ice cream!

Buckingham Palace


The next two days went by in a whirlwind on tourist attractions. We asked every tour guide in site to explain the family trees of royalty in England. We kept getting all the Edwards and Charles and Isabelle's confused! We saw crown jewels, toured the palace where Kate and William and Harry and Princess Diana, Queen Victoria and many others lived. We saw the amazing old outfits, more jewels and amazing views. We ended the night with take out chinese food and say yes to the dress. Classic.

O and did I mention we saw WICKED?!? In London! By far, the best experience ever!
