It's London, Baby!

Our next big adventure on our holiday was to take the train down to London for a day. It was pretty cool to see, I must say!

We started out at 221B Baker Street to visit Sherlock Holmes' house. Unfortunately, he wasn't in for the day.

Then we headed over to Westminster Abbey and took a tour. You can't take pictures inside the church, but here we are right after exploring for a bit.

Riley Cates and I were a bit "Westminster Crabby" after the tour (it is hard for kids to look around a place for so long!), so we took a break and had some oranges. A little snack goes a long way!

Then we got to see this guy. What's not to like about a giant blue rooster?

We were in Trafalgar Square, so we climbed up on the great big lions.

It's pretty high up there! You can get a good view!

We took a stroll through St. James's Park.

It was nice to cool off in the shade for a bit! (This was when we started complaining of our bones hurting. We had done a LOT of walking!)

But it was a good walk because we got to see Buckingham Palace. These soldiers were amazing to watch!

It was a quick day in London, but I am so glad we got to explore!
