DAY 2

Ello everybody!! Today was full day, lots of walking and touring around the city. Our first stop of the day was Wembly Stadium, which is where the England national team plays. We got a very exclusive tour where we got to see the royal family's suite, the locker room where they have blowdryers installed specifically for David Beckham. We got to see the VIP lounge, all of their jerseys hanging in their lockers, and even walk out of the tunnel onto the pitch. If you want to see any pictures from this tour, go the XL Travel's Facebook page. Next up on our days schedule was our river boat tour. We hopped on a boat at the tower of london and took a ride up the river to big ben. Here we met another tour guide that was going to take us to all of London's famous sights. We saw big ben and the house of parliament. We saw westminster abby, the house of the prime minister, Trafalgar's square, Churchill's war rooms, where he made the phone call to America in WWII asking for our help, and finally buckingham palace! For the duration of the trip we can be reach by mail at buckingham palace, we are staying there for the remainder of the trip:). We finished off our walking tour by doing a bit of shopping at picadilly circus. If you ever feel like we are far away, check your bank accounts...we are still here:). We love you and miss you! see you soon!!

Cheers,
