London

We arrived in London at around 4:30/5:00 and it was already dark so we caught the tube to the station Elephant and Castle !?!??! It was still a 1km walk to our apartment and, by the end, we were all wishing we had caught a bus.

The next day we headed off on a bus to Buckingham palace, via Westminster street and other notable attractions. We reached Buckingham palace and had a brief look around before heading to St James's park and then off to the Tower of London.

The tower was really cool because it had a lot of different exhibits and areas, like the Crown Jewels, The Bloody tower, the Southern Walkway and a new exhibit of King's armor over 500 centuries. Everyone enjoyed it because there was at least one thing there that everyone enjoyed. I liked the royal armor exhibition the most because it is what I am into. It many exhibits which weren't confined to armor. There were weapons from different time periods, royal gifts and also guns confiscated during a massive police investigation in 1995.

We headed back to our apartment Via another bus, enabling us to see London at night.
