London Sight Seeing 1










Time to see the sights properly, Here is a map of London Bus routes. Looks confusing! I know ! I will look at the other side - it has underground routes ! Much better, Wombats like being underground. Now what to see ?










Off to the centre of democracy. Maybe Gordon Brown (Prime Minister) is at home at Number 10 (Downing Street).












If he is he certainly will be in no doubt as to the time of day, This is Big Ben (actually Big Ben is the bell inside the tower).










Perhaps the Queen will grant me an audience, I see that she is at home (the flag is flying).










Unfortunately not! Her Majesty prefers corgis to wombats. Hard to understand really.









She does have a lot ot guards though. These are the horse guards, marching past the palace.










Wombats are not birds, but we can get a birds eye view. This is the London Eye, a gigantic wheel from which you can gat a panoramic view of the city









Here I am looking out directly toward Kings Cross railway station, one of the major stations in london with Underground and National Rail services to many parts of the country (including Hogwarts if you can manage to get to Platform Nine and Three Quarters)










Day is almost done, after a quick visit to Harrods Department Store in Knightsbridge, time to head home to our B&B for some R&R. Feet very sore! More soon !
