London


        Two weeks ago we started an awesome trip.  Over the course of two weeks we went to 6 major european cities.  We started by waking up at six in Zurich to go get on the train in Basel.  There we got on a bus to the Basel city Euroairport, which is half in Switzerland and half in France (the same with the Geneva airport).  From there we got on a two hour flight to London Stanstead airport.  We had happened to arrive the day after the British parliamentary election, it was also VE day so there were lots of WW2 veterans out taking pictures with tourists.  We saw Big Ben and 10 Downing St.  The next day we woke up late and went to a market for breakfast. After that we went over to Tower Bridge and beachcombed under it and then walked across.  On the other side of Tower Bridge we walked to the Tower of London to see the Crown Jewels and look at the armor, we spent the rest of the day there.  On our last full day we woke up early and went to the Greenwich Maritime Museum.  The museum happened to be hosting an interactive play that we got tickets to, it was super fun.  Then we walked up to the Greenwich Observatory and went to the museum and got our picture taken on the 0º meridian.  The last day we woke up early and got on the train to Stanstead.  From there we flew to Seville...
