I forgot that I never blogged about my trip to London so I figured I would do it today! We landed in London late on Thursday night, then when we arrived at our hostel we were shocked to walk into Karaoke night at Belushi's Bar. Yes, we lived in a hostel that was on top of a bar for 3 nights. Besides the difficult start to trip, it was very fun and clean. For our first day we did a tour of Buckingham Palace, it was absolutely beautiful. Every inch of the palace was decorated beautifully, and the tour ended with us being able to see Kate's dress, shoes, earrings, cake, and bouquet. The tour was by far my favorite thing I did in London. After that we did a bus tour and a tour of Westminister Abbey. They were both a lot of fun, and we were able to see the whole city in a day. On Saturday we went and walked around the area near the London Eye and there happened to be this big cultural festival, so we were able to hang out there for a bit. Then my favorite part of London was Notting Hill, it was a cute area with a bunch of different stores that we went into. Sunday was the funniest experience I have had here yet. We went to Abbey Road trying to capture the Beatles picture, just like every other tourist in London. None of us realized how busy of a street it was, and that there was no street lights or anything. There were just about 20 people when we got there crossing a busy street. Luckily we captured the picture with no casualties! Overall the trip was a lot of fun, but I am definitely excited to start going to countries that I have not been to yet!
