hello all!
well, what a productive day in london was had.
it was absolutely disgustingly pouring rain (i loved it) from the time we woke up until about 2, but nonetheless, enjoyment was had. we bussed our way down to the London Eye, and it was so freaking amazing!! £17.99 per person, but still, ridiculous. we got in the bubble with about 10 other people, and got to see how big london really was! we were right across the river from the parliament buildings and big ben, and could see the whole of Thames. which was very extremely dirty, but still, kinda cool.
it was sabout half an hour, and we got sooo high up in the air. uhm, yeah it was cool.

we then walked across one of the bridges to the parliament buildings and just walked around for a while. we went to Trafalgar square and the ministry of defence building and it was really cool.
once we got back across the river, however, jake decided he needed mcdonalds, and although i was not hungry, i ate it as well, and have had a stomach ache ever since :(
i have banned mcdonalds the rest of the trip.
ah well.
still, quite an eventful day, we got a lot of sightseeing in, and a lot of pictures!!!
