london experiences

well after a long flight, with a very surreal stop over in Bangkok we are finally in London and seeing all the sights like the tourists we are! Having a great time hanging out with Ant and Robin....the similarites between Australia and England are greater than i imagined, but the differences make us smile.....like the red buses and phone boxes, and different chocolate and eavesdropping on the accents.....

it hasnt been that cold thank the goddess.....and it hasnt really rained, so its made it easy to visit stuff and walk around town. We have seen some truely amazing stuff.....we have only been here two days but we have really experienced so much already.

On the first day, we walked around town,saw some beautiful old buildings, saw picadilly circus....leicester square....ash's face was so wide eyed with amazement, like a little kid, it was gorgeous! we went to an oxfam, and i bought some indian bangles there as a souvenier, The British Museum was totally amazing - we spent a long time with the serious faces of the huge egyptian statues - i couldnt get over the size of them...we also saw an easter island dude and a Buddha state from saranath.....id love to have days and days to spend in there

ant took us to a totally beautiful old church called 'temple church' it had an amazing atmosphere and i could have happily sat there for hours as well

but we had to move on, through old cobbled streets surrounded by the oldest buildings, in a total dream like state, cant believe we are here

we visted some real old english pubs and had afew to mny beers...such a spin out to be drinking in a pub where people have been for over 400 years...

anyway thats the first day...and we have done heaps more in the second day, but i dont have time to write that now - as we are off for another fun packed amazing day...
