Day 2: London Time



-After a free breakfast of toast, cereal, and tea in the bar at St. Christophers, we were off on our first of many pilgrimages to the town of London. It was the first, but by far the best.

-We took the “tube” into the Westminster station, and saw Big Ben as soon as we completed the maize of escalators out of the underground.








-We saw the Houses of Parliament and the Westminster Abbey before the rain hit. Luckily it wasn’t anything too severe, but it was definitely enough to convince us to do some relatively indoor activities… So we went to the Aquarium and rode the London Eye.








-Afterwards, we went to the Globe Theater and walked across the Millenium bridge to St. Paul’s Cathedral.


-The day ended with a ride on the tube, followed by dinner at the bar below the Hostel.
