We are up fairly early but had a good sleep and are over our jet lag. After breakfast we hop on the "Hop on/Hop off" bus and start our exploring for the day.
From the Marble Arch we head down to Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey and Big Ben (see it in the background in the picture below. We get off at the London Eye (picture below) and head back to Buckingham Palace for the changing of the guard. Sorry Mom, aunt Lizzy was home but didn't come out to say hi.

We stop for lunch - another english pub for some fish 'n chips and a couple pints (Fuller's Pride, Truman's Eyrie, and Peroni). Take a stroll to a cool market area called Covent Garden, then get back on on the bus to finish the tour.
Tonight is our theatre night so we head to the Piccadilly Circus area to see "The Book of Mormon"- definitely out there and just a bit offside, but hilarious. We really enjoyed it.
A lot of walking today, but the weather has been great and we are enjoying seeing London. Oh... and it was a happy day for Ron as he had pizza for dinner!
Location:London, England
