ADELAIDE, AUSTRALIA - LONDON, ENGLAND

Adelaide, Australia

Our family holiday to Europe started in the Qantas lounge at Adelaide airport where we said goodbye to my Nanna and Pa. (In the lounge we sat next to the Crows players who were on their way to Perth - my Nanna was pretty excited about that!) My Mum, Dad, sister and I boarded our plane at 5.40 pm and flew from Adelaide to Sydney. We then flew from Sydney to Singapore in a Qantas 747/400. On this flight I watched movies and played games on my own screen - I only had about 3 hours sleep. We saw the Himalayas as we flew over.

We arrived in London at noon on Sunday 11 April. My Uncle Peter picked us up from Heathrow Airport. We went back to his apartment in Paddington, central London, where we stayed for 6 nights with him, Aunt Nicola and my 9 month old cousin, Josephine. We then went for a long walk around London, through Hyde Park and to the Science Museum.

We saw a lot of places/streets whose names are in the English “Monopoly” game, such as Mayfair, Park Lane, Oxford Street, Piccadilly Circus and Trafalgar Square.

London, United Kingdom

Today we caught a London double-decker bus to the Tower Bridge. We walked over the bridge and visited the HMS Belfast, a WWII English warship. After that we walked back across London Bridge to Leicester Square and Trafalgar Square. We climbed a tall monument (202 feet high) that marked the spot where the London fire started in 1666. We then walked to Buckingham Palace, where the Queen of England lives, before walking home.
