London Photos

Now that I have access to a computer, I have the luxury to upload some photos taken from the Vancouver Airport and from our stay in London. Here they are:

Our farewell party at the Vancouver Airport:



Matt and I at Vancouver Airport:




When we arrived in London and dropped our luggage off to our hostel, we headed to Hyde Park.  We picked up some food at a local grocery store chain called Waitrose and set out our hotel blanket and made a few calls on our new British cell phone.  We walked around Hyde Park, checked out the Princess Diana Memorial Fountain and the beautiful scenery of the park.  What a great location!

Matt relaxing at Hyde Park...also where I got my first tan :)


We took the hop-on, hop-off bus around London. Best way to see all the sights in the fastest time possible.


Red Phone Booth!! They really do exist in London!

I mentioned in a previous blog about how the trains were so congested one afternoon - here is a pic!


Those are all the pics for now! It takes ages for them to upload to this website! I hope you enjoyed.
