London IV

2/23 - London - On Wednesday we took a double-decker to the London Eye where we looked down on London. We went with our new friends that we shared our Hostel room with.

On the way to the London Eye, we walked past Big Ben + Parliament.

Afterward we saw we rented bikes (1lb for 24 hours) and biked around the park. We got to see Buckingham Palace and got soaked in the rain. At night we caught our bus to the Airport, then made it to the hotel so we could get up early and catch our flight.


Here's the panorama we took about 3/4 way to the top of the London Eye. I would have gotten a 360, but there were people in the way:

    Based on the British policeman we've met, if they saw us, we'd get invited in for a cup of tea, and then told stories about US history.

    The police in London actually want to help you. We had a nice talk w/ one about how the bike paths work.

    All the Speeding Tickets are done by camera and automatic system, so maybe they have nothing else to do, or maybe they became police to help people. Renee and I are very surprised at how helpful and kind the people we have talked to are.

    I've never heard of the London Eye! Out of anywhere I'd want to visit, It'd probably be London. So jealous!
