London III

We accidently slept in a bit but I think my family needed it.  The breakfast in London was a bit more to what we were use to in America.  It was delicious.  My mom wasn’t feeling well so went ahead without her.  Our first stop was Hamley’s toy store.  Apparently it is the oldest toy store and maybe the largest in the area?  It was huge.  If I remember correctly it had 6 levels.  The kids were in heaven.  My mom told my dad that he could buy each kid a toy.

The workers were so fun there.  This guy had a flying disc toy and he had it flying around Tyson and at the entrance there was a guy blowing tons of bubbles singing at the top of his lungs.

The top floor was the Legos and you can imagine Ty's excitement.

Iron man and a phone booth all made out of Legos.

The Queen made out of Legos

We loved traveling the tube.  Super efficient, easy and quick.  There was always a seat that said reserved for the elderly, pregnant women or mother’s with young children.  Almost every time if the train was full someone would get up and offer me the seat since I had Jeffrey.  The people of London were very nice.

Next up was Buckingham Palace!  It was so gorgeous and huge.  I didn’t think it was that big.

I read in a tourist book that the Queen wasn’t at the Palace when there are just a few guards.  I only saw 2 or 3 so I was sad knowing she wasn’t there.  LOL!

We went back to Big Ben and the Palace of Westminster.

We got pretty creative with where and how to change diapers.  At one point we had to change Andrew’s so Brian went up by the Abraham Lincoln statue that isn’t far from Big Ben.  As he was changing the diaper a large group of tourists sat right by us and started listening to the guide.  It was a little awkward. Like I said, we did our best to change diapers out of the way but sometimes even then we were still in the way.
