Big Ben...Parliament...Big Ben...Parliament...(and Buckingham Palace)

In an effort to try and curb the effects of jet lag, we spent today walking around London. It was a beautiful day and plenty of people were out and about enjoying the day. We took the Tube to Buckingham Palace, which is currently flanked with full-bloom tulips, and then walked to The Thames River. Here is a picture of my soon-to-be-new-home, you know, when the Queen appoints me ruler of England.




After admiring the palace (and the tulips) we walked to Big Ben and Parliament. Big Ben chimed at 6 p.m. to let us know we were heading into evening, which is when I took this picture. Ben was standing strong and pointing us toward the London Eye...
