The British Museum and Around


Hello! Sorry about the delay in posts. Two days ago we left York for London on what should have been a 3 hour tour, a three hour toooour... When, apparently all the signals at Kings Cross station in London failed so no trains were allowed in or out of the city. We ended up being on the train for almost 6 hours before they let us off at some station outside of London where we were able to get on the tube and ride that to our hotel. Then last night I (Libby) ended up with a really bad migraine so I didn't write a post.

I do have some pictures from yesterday though. We went to the British Museum which is a really fun museum with artifacts from all over the world and all through history.

After we were done at the museum we decided to take to tube to the Westminster area and see Big Ben and Trafalgar Square.

Tomorrow we are going to the Tower of London! Hope you are having a good week so far!
