London

I took a bus from Inverness at 7pm to London and got there at 7 am. It was a lonngggg uncomfortable night. I got to London and my hostel was not far from the station so I went to try and check in but it was too early but he let me go take a shower so that was wonderful! I was at buckingham palace by 8am before all the tourists were out! I was expecting some grand beautiful place. It was nice but not what I thought it would be. I walked forever before ending up by the county hall which holds the aquarium and film museum. I ended up doing one of those hop on hop off buses because I was sick of walking. Seriously my feet are killing me. I went and did a tour of the tower of London. They have the yeoman warders do the tours and the guy was hilarious. Did you know that every year on their birthday beefeater gin sends them a bottle? I don't like gin but still that's awesome.

The bus tour that I did also offered a free Harry potter location tour! Of course I was all over that!! We saw the entrance to diagon alley, the ministry of magic, and a few other places from the movies. We even went to the candy shop that inspired the one in the books.

Also I'm freezing. I ruined my jeans in Paris and I don't know what it's like to be warm anymore since I got to Norway! It's always soooo cold! I tried to find some jeans here I went to like five different stores but I cant figure out the sizes. Ladies, you know how awful it is to find jeans. It's even worse when you don't understand the sizes. Ugh.

On my last day there I just walked around for five or six hours. I tried to go to the planetarium but it had moved way outside the city. So I ended up going to the aquarium instead which was pretty cool. When you walk in you walk over a glass floor and you can see sharks swimming under you. They had big turtles and scary looking sharks. After the aquarium I tried to go into the film museum to see the tardis from dr who. The museum was closed because there was a conference being held there. It just was not my day to see things. I did however find a seven story toy store that was absolutely amazing. They had so many awesome toys! They had a life sized statue thing made out of Legos or Kate and William and Harry from the day of the wedding.

I tried to see one of the girls I met in Croatia but she never got back to me until the last night I was there so I was sad I didn't get to see either of them.
