London

A great 1st day in London today. We hopped on the subway and headed for the sights. First stop the National Gallery. Wow amazing! Lots of photos at Trafalgar Square then off to find a tour bus. Lots of sights - Big Ben, St Paul's cathedral. Next stop The Tower of London. What an amazing place. We did a tour here. There were over 800,000 poppies in the grounds commemorating 100 years since World War 1. Each poppy signified a life lost in the war. Then off on a boat trip which ended just below Big Ben. Back on the bus to the British Library. The day started off drizzling and ended up without a cloud in the sky ... Amazing ☀️
