London Calling: Part 1

Yesterday Jojo & I jumped on the train and had a girlie day in London, not to shop but to see some of the sights. We didn't get as much done as we had planned but that gives us the excuse to go again! 

After arriving I took Jo over to St Pancras station which is beautiful with a lot les hustle & bustle as Kings Cross. 

Then we hoped on the tube to go to the London Eye. We ummed & ahhed whether to go on it but when we got there and saw the queue it quickly made up our mind! Note to self book tickets next time! 

Then a quick walk across London Bridge to Big Ben which chimed noon as we crossed

Rather than get on the tube we decided to explore the streets and find our way to  Buckingham Palace. Our walk took us through Horse guards which is beautiful. I felt sorry for the guard on horseback at the entrance as he was surrounded by tourists wanting their photo taking, he looked so nervous as his horse got more & more agitated. 

From here we entered St James's park which I'll share in another post.
