London Day 3 & 4

I didn't have time to post yesterday, so I'm doing both days 3 and 4 in this one.
Day 3:
We went to the London Tower and got a tour around the inside. It was cool to see around such a historical site. (If you don't know about it just look up Henry VIII and Ann Boleyn). The Crown Jewels are also located here. We weren't allowed to take pics on the inside, and I didn't get many pics outside cuz it stared raining.

After that we walked across the London Tower Bridge (not to be confused with the London Bridge). It was freezing though, so we didn't spend a lot of time outside that day.


After that we went to the Natural History Museum. The building was freakin amazing - and the museum part was pretty cool too.


We decided we wanted to go to another show that night so we went and saw Lion King. I've seen it before, but it's still super good! On the way there we stopped and ate at this little underground place. It was in like a wine cellar down in this big shopping square.

Day 4:
We spent most of the day at the Portobello Market. It's the biggest flea market in the world. It was just this street that went on for blocks full of shops and booths (indoor and out) of antiques and clothes and jewelry, and food, and anything else you wanted really. I wanted to buy a ton of things but since I had limited luggage space I just bought a few trinkets, a clock, and 3 watches (I love watches)



After that we only had a couple hours left before we had to be back at the airport so we went and saw Big Ben and Westminster Abbey. Then headed to the airport and flew back to Germany.
