On Saturday we did Part Two of the London Lightning tour designed by Vanessa (although it included a few things that were in Part One, because Bex hadn't seen them).
We went past the London Eye, Big Ben, Parliament Buildings and Westminster Abbey again. We also stopped off at the Tate Modern gallery which was pretty cool - the bottom floor was an earthquake exhibition, where they had actually cut a hole in the floor! We stopped for lunch at the food markets. I forget the name, but its where Jamie Oliver buys all his food - or is it Gordon Ramsay? Well anyway they were pretty impressive, and the giant pile of paella was tasty (although we didn't quite eat the whole thing, haha).
We also stopped by St Paul's Cathedral. We went inside briefly but the lightning tour didn't allow for us to walk up to the top (and our stomachs were full of paella!).
On Saturday night I kicked off my 'cousin tour' with dinner with Stephen and Carissa. One cousin down, about fifty to go I reckon.
On Sunday, we went to Greenwich - the exact middle of the earth (famous for 'Greenwich Mean Time'). Here's our feet in the center of the world!
It was good times, and I was sad to leave London. Maybe see you again in a couple of years!
