LONDON!!!! Days 6 & 7

March 7, 2011

Here we are at St. Paul's Cathedral.


Then we went to the British Museum. We didn't take any pictures, but it's big and there's lots of stuff in it. We saw the Elgin Marbles from the Parthenon in Athens and the Rosetta Stone (Not the kiosk where the guy tries to sell you a yellow box so you can learn another language. This one's from Egypt and can translate hieroglyphs).

We stopped for lunch and I decided to have a traditional English breakfast. That's toast, fries, egg, tomato, ham, sausage, mushrooms, and baked beans.

All I can say about the meal is: God bless America.

Then we went to Trafalgar Square. Nelson's Column is in the middle of it. It's surrounded by big lion statues that kids like to climb on. There's two big fountains and the square leads into the National Museum which we checked out.




We caught the tube back over to Westminster Abbey. We thought it'd be cool to be inside for a service. We went to Evensong which is a service where the boys choir sings prayers. Then we headed back home.

Today's the last day. We slept in and had some time to kill before our flight so we just sat in Hyde Park for a little bit. This is the Wellington Arch which was nearby.


The flight back home was long too but again there was plenty of entertainment to keep us occupied. Here's a photo of Las Vegas as we passed over it. Thanks for touring London with us!
