We only had 1 day in London, so we saw what we could that day. Headed over to Buckingham Palace (Weston was hoping to see the Queen...) and St. James Park.
Big Ben was a must-see...unfortunately it was covered with scaffolding. We rode around on some double decker buses, took the metro, and wandered around the city. One of the pictures below is in Waterloo Station.
And we saw a nice view from and of the Tower Bridge.
We weren't planning on going to the Visitor's Center of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, but we ended up coming across it as we were headed to the Natural History Museum. And it turned up at just the right time, because we were searching for a bathroom. We went inside for a bit, and noticed a large picture of a family in our ward in Durham. It was a picture from probably 5-6 years ago (their kids looked a lot younger). They were part of the church's "I'm a Mormon" initiative that they have done in the past. This family submitted a video for that campaign.
The Natural History Museum was cool, although we didn't have enough time to see it all. The building itself was very impressive - night at the museum...
We ended the night by looking at all the Christmas lights, which weren't hard to find. Everything was lit up for Christmas. So pretty!
