We arrived in London Yesterday, very very exhausted. The first stop we made once settling into our wonderful hotel room was the Texas Embassy (ok, stop laughing). We had "authentic" Tex-Mex. yummmm. We visted the Westminster Abbey and House of Parliament, and we saw Big Ben, or as someone very special to us calls it "Big Bend". We went to bed at 8, and woke up at 2:30am ready to start the day. Today we are mainly getting used to the tube and getting ourselves oriented with this crazy city. We are fully aware that we are being typical tourists, and are very happy with that.
Things we have learned:
1) It is okay to be up in a stranger's personal space if you are trying to get onto a crowded train.
2) Everyone is skinny because they walk everywhere.
3) If you are outside of Buckingham Palace, you are a tourist.
Some pictures attached.
Cheers,
