Hopping around London with Froggy
London
,
United Kingdom
Jumped on the train to the home of Big Ben and Buckingham Palace, thats right folks ... London.
We didn't chose the best day to go considering it has been the only day it has rained while being in the U.K. It rained all day and into the night.
Our first stop was to have a cup of tea with Lizzie, but the old bird double booked so we watched the changing of the guards instead. Disappointed that Lizzie had forgotten that we were coming we did the next best thing, caught up with Jay an Aussie friend for lunch in a pub.
After saying our farewells it was time to see if London Bridge was falling down. Thankfully it wasn't and we wandered over it in the wet. Onto Westminster Abbey which was the highlight for Corrine. Unfortunately we were not allowed to take photos inside and it was to wet out side. When you see the abbey on T.V you don't realise that there are so many nooks and crannies. We got to see the tombs of many famous and historical figures including Sir Isaac Newton.
After our trip to Westminster it was time to head on over to
Leicester
Square to meet up with another Australian friend, Christian or as we all know him - Froggy. We did something that is typically "Froggy" which was have dinner and go to a show. We saw Avenue Q which was fantastic. We had such a good time it was a real shame it had to end.
After spending the night at the Frog Mans it was a quick trip into Harrods and then back to Newmarket to count in the New Year.
Blog you later.
