A Trip I'll Never Forget: London
11:00:00 AM
Rewind about a week ago, I was walking the streets of central London on my way to Kensington Palace in lovely sunny weather. Now I'm back to reality in a place where its maybe 6 degrees and rainy. London has been a place that I wanted to visit for years, and I still can't believe that I was able to visit there. It might be because it was a fluke that I went because one day my cousin said to me of I really want to go to London, but none of my fiends want to go. My head turned on a swivel and before we knew it we were booking our flights and hotel. I booked this trip almost a year ago and its hard to believe that its been here and gone.
London is exactly what I thought it would be full of history, architecture, tourists (lol), and friendly people. The only down side was the price. I would give anything to go back. We made a list of the places we wanted to visit and planned out days so we would go to the places in the same area. So we wouldn't waste time running all around central London. This also made it easier so if we knew the places we wanted to visit and if we ran out of time we could possible add it to another day. I was so amazed by the architecture, its nothing like I've seen before it was beautiful.
Like look at Westminster Abbey its awesome, its a must see. It inside is just breathe taking, I can't even describe it I loved it. There is no picture taking inside, and trust me its hard to resist to take pictures of the inside its just breath taking with all the stain glass and architecture inside.
Hampton Court, a little outside London but a must see. The gardens in the area and just pristine, you can tell that a lot of hard work goes into maintaining the gardens.
I could go on and on about this trip I took but my highlight of the entire trip was a day trip we took which brought us to Windsor Castle, Bath and Stonehenge. We booked through premium tours and I would highly recommend their service. You are able to visit all 3 of these locations in 1 day, we started at Windsor Castle then to Bath and lastly Stonehenge. You spend most of your day on a bus that was to be expected and you spend about an hour and a half in each location. That was enough time for Stonehenge and Bath but not enough for Windsor Castle. We knew we would be rushed in Windsor Castle so we didn't listen to the entire audio guide, we walked through the castle and listened to bits and pieces that we wanted to listen to. Since we knew this we were able to do the castle in the allotted time, where as a lot of people on our tour had to skip parts or rush through at the end. When I go back to London I'll definitely book another tour with them.
This was a trip of a lifetime and can't wait to go back.
