London, England, United Kingdom
Tuesday, February 8, 2011
Today, I was not feeling the greatest so I did not want to go to work and get the kiddies sick. My supervisor was totally fine with that; I am going in on Monday instead. It came about 2 PM and I was like I gotta do something; I cannot sit in my apartment while I am in Lonodn. All of my friends were either interning or in class so I decided to take a personal day by myself. I started out on the District Line tube and headed Towards Westminster to Parliament Square with Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, and the London Eye! and parks and the Tems River. I was too late for worshipping time in the Abbey. I would have loved to say a prayer because I know that Grampy was there in spirit for that Packers Game! It was beautiful; it was so relaxing to be by myself and at my own pace. It was even better that I found it by myself. I walked around there for like two hours and then I got back onto the Circle Line and headed towards High Street Kensington to see the Kensington Palace. The GArdens were beautiful, but the palace was kind of under construction. To be honest; it was much much smaller than I thought! It cost too much money to go inside so I just explored the outside and the area around it. Then I headed back home and did some homework, not much haha and photoshopped some pictures. Then I went off to the grocery store to get a few items. That was my personal day and I loved every second of it. I walked for about 3 or 4 hours so my legs are definitely going to be sore tomorrow!

Sounds like a nice personal day. Are you going to go on the London Eye? I want to!
I was waiting for you guys to do that! Apparently we should do it at night time here...I can check out the prices! I think it is from 12-14 pounds or soemthing like that!
I really enjoyed the Parliament building pictures!
