A Rainy Day On The Thames

From the time we woke up this morning it was raining but mimicking the locals, we didn't let that stop us.

Taking the tube and DLR, we headed to Greenwich where Ava got to meet new friends - Matthew, Haydn, and Daisy - and explore the National Maritime Museum.

Ava learned what life was like for British traders.

And Matthew posed with the Royal Navy's firepower.

After leaving the town where time begins, we took the Millenium City up (down?) the Thames past Tower Bridge, The Shard, Darth Vader's Helmet, and on down to Westminster.

From Westminster we walked down the river, past Trafalgar Square and Leicester Square, and to China Town for a delicious lunch.

After filling our tummies, we wandered over to Piccadilly Circus.

And then on to Hamleys, one of the world's largest toy stores, where we had the chance to meet the Lego Royal Family.
