Up early this morning and caught the bus with Dale into Exeter. We were going the same route he takes to work so it was perfect. We arrived in London around lunch time and Jamie was so excited. And it was so exciting to show her around and enjoy her excitement.
We caught the tube to our hotel, checked in and headed back out to explore London. We caught the tube back into central London and walked to Trafalgar Square. From here we walked to Buckingham Palace then to Westminster Abbey. We decided to do the tour of Westminster. And WOW! It was absolutely amazing! It was so old and the architecture was incredible. This was definitely the highlight of the trip. Next we went next door to see Big Ben and the view of the London Eye. By this time we're getting hungry and tired! We grabbed some wine and hopped on the tube back to our hotel. After changing and drinking some wine - out of the bottle because we didn't have glasses (so classy) - we headed back out for dinner.
We went to Bella Italia which I'm addicted to everytime I go to London. We enjoyed a really nice dinner with a very handsome Italian waiter. It was almost 11pm when we finished and it was time to find somewhere to go dancing. The main clubbing area of London the clubs have people out front enticing people to come in so we had a few of these instances. We decided to go to a club called Sound. It was 2 levels and was pretty busy. It was R&B night so the music was perfect. The drinks were expensive! But that's London for you. After a few hours and many men malling us we decided it was time to leave. The men are mostly European and have no regard for women it seems. They aren't shy to come onto you and ask you where your hotel room is! How bold! We were ready for home at that point. We ended up walking an hour back to our hotel! No shortage of exercise today! But a great day!
