Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, London Eye, Westminster Abbey, and More!






Today I visited Buckingham Palace! Shelby and I took the tube to meet Curtis and we walked down to the Palace. We walked around there for a while and then we walked in the Royal Park on Princess Diana of Wales Memorial Walkway. There were so many birds there! I’m not really a fan of birds so I was trying to avoid them as much as possible. There was even a huge pelican bird. Then we walked over to Big Ben and Westminster Abbey. From there we went to a café on the Thames River and I had the best cookies and crème ice cream ever! It was called Jack’s Italian Ice Cream. We stayed there for a while because and sat by the window to people watch where it was warm. Then we went to Waga Mama’s restaurant where I had the chicken teriyaki donburi. After dinner the three of us went to the Tower of London Bridge to see a ship pass through. This was the first time in almost a year that the bridge has been opened and it will not open again until September. Our teacher Philippa suggested that we go see it tonight. Then Shelby and I headed back to the flats and are getting ready to go to a karaoke bar with out flatmates!
