Hi everyone!
I swear every year around the end of October - the beginning of November, my family and I tend to go to London. Shamefully, I have been to London twice in a week but the first visit was shopping so it doesn't count! This time around, me and my dad went to look at some of the sites that London has to offer and I thought it would make a cute little blog post with lots of pictures.

So firstly, we wanted to get to Tower Bridge but literally had no clue where to go. We found a footpath which was called the Thames Path, and I have to admit it was the loveliest route to go down. It followed a canal with lots of pretty boats and some nice looking pubs which go along the canal.

Not going to lie the walk did feel like forever and after passing about 3 of these, we decided to hire some Boris bikes!! I've wanted to go on them for absolutely ages and my dad finally gave in and got us some to hire! I couldn't believe how cheap they were, just £2 a bike for 24 hours?! They definitely need these in Cambridge it would my life so much more easier on the days when I miss the bus.
Yaaay! We finally made it to Tower Bridge and I love seeing Tower Bridge so much. I think its one of my favourite sites to see in London but I have no idea why! We had a small stop there to get off our bikes and look at boats (well my dad wanted to!) There was this huge ship which was also acting as a party boat and they were blaring the music out from the other side of the Thames, it brightened my day a little more!

Then we went to the actual Tower Of London to see the poppies scattered around the tower. It was absolutely beautiful but it is for all the wrong reasons. I couldn't believe each poppy represents someones life from WW1, so shocking. Seeing photos of the memorial poppies doesn't really capture how many there actually are - it was amazing but shocking at the same time? Also, it was incredibly crowded, so many tourists!
More sightseeing before we headed home - and of course, we went back in style on the bikes! I love London so much, but I don't think I would like going into work everyday - far too busy for my liking! If you've ever been to London, where's your favourite spot to be? Also, if you want to see more of my photos from my London trip you can view them on my Flickr page - I'm hoping to be using this a lot more now!
