London / Getting Our Tourist On Pt. 1

November 11, 2013 by Jonathan Chow in London

I woke up this Sunday around 7:30 and as soon as I saw the weather for today, I knew we had to take advantage of it. Early Sunday mornings are clearly Michelle's favorites.

Despite the fact we've been here for over a month, we actually rarely see the Thames, mostly because we rarely have a reason to go near it. Today though, we planned on playing tourist and hitting some of the major attractions London has to offer. Stop 1; Tower Bridges. Cool battleship though, yeah?

The weather was a little chilly, but otherwise perfect.

On our way, we swung by the Tower of London, an old castle that houses the crown jewels. Unfortunately, we had to meet with some of Michelle's classmates around 2, so we didn't have time to check it out.

Perfect place to just relax and stroll on a day like this.

And here it is! Fortunately, it's a lot easier to walk on than the Golden Gate.

This building, the Leadenhall Building is a little crazy. Standing far above every other building in the area, I can't compare to the few other skyscrapers in London but it looks like it'll be the new tallest building once complete.

Neat ferries, they look like they could go a lot faster than what they were doing though.

Of course....

Yeah, it's a real drawbridge. A little unsettling how big the gap was.
