London Day 1


Today is our first day in London City. Like all days before this one so far we woke up and went to have a massive breakky, however this one was not a buffet like the last but a one time walk through get as much food as you can and stick it on your plate. Now Kieran and I know how to play that game 2 morrow I think we will have 2 bowels of cereal.

After our breaky we called our loved ones, sorry if you didnt get a call (guess your not loved), had to say we are alive as we hadn't posted, emailed, sms'd, wrote, called, or courier pigeoned them for a while it was about time to do so.

After calling we decided to go explore this city we shall call home for a while. It started with a look at St Pauls Cathedral, then a long walk to Trafalgar Square, Looked at Lord Nelson column and kieran sat on a Lion, made of metal ...... She loves the lions, you can tell by the way she rode it.

In trafalgar square is the National Gallery which houses some artwork by Van gogh ie sunflowers, the chair. Monet ie the water lilly, Picasso and Dubet. Kieran was pretty impressed especially by the van gogh and Monet stuff, she bought a magnet. After this excitment we walked down the street and saw Big Ben, The London eye, House of Parliment, Westminster Abby and had lunch (only $52, we have to stop converting) at Waterloo at a pub where I had my first fosters. Like all good aussies i had it overseas.




For Lunch we had Pies and Pints, now we truly are in England

Glen and Kieran
