London Day 3




It is our 3rd full day in London, Today we did many things. First off we decided on our tour of Europe. We will be leaving on the 16th November and travel through 10 countries over 21 days. When we return a week later we leave for Edinborough for 4 days. We got a really good deal on our tour and the extra 4 days in Scottland only cost an extra ₤20, Can any one say Bargain (said in a Jimoen accent). We will tell you more about that closer to the time.

After we had booked our tour we went walking around town and saw more sights. Today we went and saw the Tower of London, Tower bridge, the Globe Theater and the Tate modern. The globe theater was good, decided to go on a tour there which was very interesting. Couldn’t see any shows as they don’t perform in winter on account of the freaking cold weather and open roof. We will go back in summer and see something

After the Globe tour we walked around the corner and saw the Tate modern gallery, as all good attractions it was free so we went in to have a look. Upon walking in we saw these spirals coming down from different levels thinking they were just art, we were like ohh that’s nice. Then we see people sliding down them and went from ohh that’s nice to ohhhh cool lets have a go! We found our way to the free tickets and got 2, one for a slide on level 3 and another for level 4. Level 5 was all gone. Only problem with our tickets was that they were for a certain time lvl 3 at 5pm and lvl 4 at 5:30pm. That gave us time to kill (sorry to all those who love modern galleries but they are weird and not really art to me neways) After we saw some weird freaky art and kiddie art. We went on the slides, which were functional art. It was really, really fun.
On the way home it was dark and didn’t fell like walking anymore so we took our first bus ride as a challenge. Just like at home the freaks catch the bus in London.
