Our third day in London, Tuesday, we went sight seeing on our own. We utilized the tube and saw lots of things. We started out going to the Tower of London and getting a tour from one of the Beefeaters. It was cool to learn about the history of the Tower and of the city. While there we got to see the Crown Jewels without a wait (sorry no pictures are allowed)! We left the Tower and went to St. Paul's Cathedral (we Charles and Di were married). We didn't go in because we are cheap but did look around at all the great architecture. From there we went to Covent Garden (an open air market) for lunch. We enjoyed being serenaded by street performers while we ate. We then went to Harrod's (mostly just to say we've been) and bought a magnet for our fridge. We then headed back to our hotel to freshen up before dinner. We went back to Covent Gardens to eat Italian food (which was terrible) on our way to West End. At the West End we saw the Lion King at the Lyceum Theatre and it was fantastic! I love theatre!!

You are cramming entirely too much fun into this trip! I'm jealous! :)
Too bad no pic of the jewels though!
