London

  Today we took our tour of London, it has been a while since I've been there and there were some new things added.  We decided to take the train because it was easier than driving, which I didn't mind.  I remember taking the train to London with my mom when I was a little girl, but that was some time ago.  It took us a while to get to London and when we got there we went to N Gower Street, where the cafe was used in a show that Kimberly likes to watch called "Sherlock", she is obsessed with anything Sherlock Holmes.  We then walked the other way to King's Cross Station to find platform 9 3/4 which was awesome.  We took the tube to Piccadilly Circus to pick up the tickets and it took us a while to find the place where we needed to go.  We walked over to Trafalgar Square to get a bit to eat and hopped on the tour bus.  We spent the day jumping on and off the buses making sure we saw everything that we wanted to see.  We took the river tour so we could get to the London Eye and going on the London Eye was amazing they said on a clear day you can see a far as 25 miles.  Kimberly and I went off by ourselves to find the Sherlock Holmes Museum and it took us a while to get there and when we did it was closed.  We met up again with my mom and aunt back at the train station and made our journey home.  It was a great day and we are all tired and it will be another busy day tomorrow since we are going to Stratford.  3 more days until Harry Potter, I'm getting really excited.
