London Calling 

My first day in London and I was beyond excited. A city that is well known throughout the world and I was there. Sometimes I just can’t believe I am where I am.

I roamed around the area of Westminster. I walked around a lot and got a feel for the London life. I even went on the underground. This was one of the most exciting things about London. The public transportation in Europe is huge and it is amazing. The underground made life so easy, it took you all over the city. A very simple system that even me a tourist could figure out. I fell in love with the underground.

The Westminster area was pretty and really big. I managed to see the London eye, Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace from the outside and more. Of course it started raining which was kind of nice because there weren’t too many people out. Less people means better pictures and less frustration with the tourists.

To get around I ended up walking through a couple parks. I had not yet mastered the underground so walking was my go to. The parks were very pretty. They even had artwork around which was really cool to see.

After spending the day here I had realized I greatly underestimated London and all it had to offer. There was way more than I thought and I did not plan enough time to see everything. I had to add another night to my stay if I really wanted the full experience.
