Here we go! The last of our October trip to the U.K.
We decided to spend only a day in London because… well, because why not? We were up in the air about whether we should visit the city and decided that if it was only for a day it wouldn't be so bad and it was during their low season.
We stayed just off of Kensington Park (in case our good friends Kate and William were in town and up for a play date) and just around the corner from the underground. Since we were only staying for a short while and Max woke up with a little bit of a fever that morning, we kept to the usual touristy things (Big Ben, the Palace, the Ferris Wheel, etc). I think I was the most impressed with Big Ben, and least impressed with Buckingham Palace, which looked liked a very boring mansion with some fancy gate. Although, being in a country that has castles all over the place, I guess I'm a little spoiled.
Anyway, here's the rest of the photos from our holiday. Next up, Barcelona!
