Visiting the BIG City - London!

This summer we ventured to the bright lights of London.  Lutaaya hasn't been to London since being home and it was somewhere I wanted her to see.  This year, London has been in the media a lot, with the Queen's Jubilee and the Olympics, it seemed this was the right time to visit.

So, we ventured on the 3 hour drive to London.  My parents came along too.  We packed the car and booked in a hotel for a long weekend stay.

Here are some of our photos that really sum up our time in London - -

Lutaaya got to ride the underground for the first time

We had tickets to see The Lion King Musical, which was a blast

Do-nuts in the hotel room as a night time feast

We found lots of WEnlocks scattered about after the Olympics so snapped as many as we could

Open top bus tour of London - Granddad and his girl

Look closely and you'll see a little piece of Uganda

Lutaaya was pleased to see the Ugandan flag flying proudly at Uganda House, Trafalgar Square

We even caught up with Royalty - what an amazing Lego creation at Hamley's

We saw all the sights

And watched the changing of Guard at Buckingham Palace

Harrods Bear

Notice my little shopaholic's bag?  Yes she bought a treat at Harrods

Beefeater Wenlock

And we took the scenic route home to drive by the Olympic Village

An amazing, but very tiring adventure to London.
