I finally made it! I'm here! Yippee! haha As you can tell I am super excited to be in beautiful London! Everything has been great so far, the plane ride, our hotel, and our first day of sight seeing. We were lucky enough to fly on an empty flight by Virgin Airlines. It was better than first class as I got an entire row to myself to stretch out and a list of over 100 movies to choose from to watch on my own personal tv along with complementary wine.
We are staying at one of Marriot's only 7 star hotels which is literally right behind the London Eye on Thames River. Our first day was incredible, we were running completely off of adrenaline from our excitement as we have gone an entire day with no sleep! We walked 8 miles along Thames River to visit famous monuments such as St. Paul's Cathedral, the Tower Bridge, the London Tower, The London Bridge, Parliament, Big Ben, and many other famous monuments. Within our first mile we saw Emma Watson and Dustin Hoffman filming a new movie and guess what?!... we might be in it! The directors allowed us to participate as extras in the shot and we walked right past them for the shot!
I have come to notice that there are 3 things Londoners need to survive: Tea/Coffee, Icecream, and a place to Jog. There are literally 3 cafes and ice cream stands on every single block, and everywhere you go there are tons of people jogging up and down along Thames River.
Tomorrow we plan to take a boat ride along Thames River and visit a famous shopping center just outside of the city. Be sure to check out the slide show I posted! I will try to keep it updated as much as possible!
Miss you all!
