"London on a Shoestring"

Buckingham Palace!


Wouldn't be a trip for me without visiting the local Hard Rock Cafe, and how cool to visit the ORIGINAL Hard Rock, where it all began...


I didn't like carrying luggage down and up these stairs the first time I visited, and it wasn't any fun the second visit either. But the girls were troopers and even turned down offers to help them. Me? I accepted every offer to carry my large bag up or down these tall staircases! Mum was tired!

Don't we look like we are having a blast?

The Abbey is probably one of my favorites

Are they not just gorgeous?

Isn't this fantastic?


Westminster Abbey, wish we could have taken pics inside :(

The three L's are still going strong!

Times Square in London, one of the more crowded areas we visited



The Tower Bridge
St. Paul's Cathedral

More of St. Paul's

Lori did not like those "mushy peas", so she put them in her empty water glass! Laura the tour guide, always ready with her map in hand!


The Tower Bridge

London Eye

We spent lots of time waiting for the subway...

We also took lots of pictures while on the subway!

"Mind the Gap"

Camden Market was "interesting"

Aww, these pics actually make me "London-sick!" (and Laura and Lydia sick!) Glad y'all are having such a great time! :)

And how did I not knw you're a fellow HRC frequent visitor? I LOVE their pins! I even have a shadowbox of them.
