For my birthday this year my husband surprised me with a trip to London. I had absolutely no idea! I had less than a week to wait for our trip, best surprise ever. That week went by in no time and before I knew it we were on our way to the airport. I realized midway to the airport that I forgot our camera, of course I forgot it, I always forget something. We spent a week in the city, here are some of my favorite iPhone photos of our trip.
We got in mid-day our first day and spent it wondering around Abby Road. I love the Beatles so of course I was excited for this. Pretty roses and ivy everywhere only made me more happy. The rest of the night we wandered around the prettiest park.
Our second day we got our Oyster card and started getting familiar with the tube {mind the gap}. We went to the Tower of London and London Bridge. Getting to see the Crown Jewels was the highlight for me that day. Such pretty views of the city from the bridge, especially of the Shard.
The next day was spent wandering around the Oxford & Picadilly Circus area. That includes getting lost for a couple of hours which I did not mind! Everywhere you look in London there is something amazing, I felt like I was in Harry Potter when I stumbled upon the Royal Courts of Justice.
The Tate modern art museum was next. I could have spent a few days there, I love art and especially modern art. You also get a beautiful view of St. Peter’s cathedral from Mellenium Bridge.
If I had to chose my favorite place in London I would have to say Hyde park. It was magical. We also walked through Green Park & Kensington Gardens.
We spent the rest of our time seeing the sites and eating and then eating some more. I loved London and hope I get to go back soon.
P.S. My curling iron refused to work so I had to do a braid everyday just in case you were wondering 😁
