Day 7 London Day Tour

Had breakfast at the Victoria Station and walked to the Buckingham Palace to watch the changing of the guards. Found out later that it wasn't scheduled for the day so we just walked around and took pictures infront of the gates to the Buckingham Palace (l) and to the Queen's residence (r).







Family shot in front of Buckingham Palace and the kids imitating the statues on the Queen Mother's memorial infront of the palace.



Walked through St. James Garden and the kids tried to feed the ducks with the leftover ramen noodles which they promptly ignored. Here's a pelican that's a bit out of place.


The beautiful flowers along the walkway and a shot of the Horseguards Stables from the park.


Continued on to the Horseguards Stable grounds, had some group shots and as usual, the kids clowned around including Romar trying to fly with his Big Bus raincoat/cape. It started to rain a little bit and mom broke out the raincoats from our visit last April.

















Passed throught the Admiralty Arch which was under renovation and then on to Trafalgar Square.


Continued along the road passing by Tony Blair's office at Downing Street which was fenced in and and had armed guards with no sense of humor.





Kept on walking towards the Parliament Buildings to view Big Ben and the surrounding scenery. It was a very clear day and the view was excellent.

And of course a picture with the famous red phone booth. I'll continue on the next post because this entry will not accept anymore photos.
