I took a 1.5 hour bus to London to sight see and visit my college friend Chelsea. It was amazing and I didn't get lost or kidnapped. The whole time I was thinking of the movie Taken though. Don't watch that movie if you plan on traveling alone. Ever.
I arrived in London around noon and hiked my way through Hyde Park to the Knightsbridge area. Knightsbridge is a very wealthy section of London filled with shops like Harrod's, Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blahnik, Burberry, Prada, and Chelsea's hotel, The Sheraton Park Tower. I dropped my backpack off in her hotel room and jumped on a Big Bus Tour. It was a couple hours long and the only stops I got off at were Westminister Abbey and Buckingham Palace. On the bus trip we got to see some pretty cool things like:
| Jack Nicholson stays at this hotel. It is so nice you have to be invited to stay here. |
| Nicky Clarke is the guy who used to cut Princess Diana's hair. We caught a glimpse of him in the window! |
| BIG BEN |
| The London Eye |
| House of Parliament |
| Westminister Abbey |
| Buckingham Palace |
| At The Laughing Gravy with Chelsea |
| My horrible attempt at night photography. |
| HARROD'S |
| The Natural History and Science Museum |
| A picture inside Harrod's just to show that I was there. This was taken for all of you coffee lovers. They also had DELICIOUS chocolate. It was hard to leave this place. |
