London

On our way! Planes, trains and automobiles.







We finally made it to London! Tower bridge is in the background.





Everyone LOVED Big Ben! It was so much better in person.




Parliment was so cool too!











This street leading up to Buckingham Palace is so fun!!




We loved Buckingham Palace also!

It was so fun to just walk around. The architechture was so beautiful on EVERY building!

We ate fish and chips at this fun tavern called The Crown:





The second and third night in London we stayed at the JW Marriott Grosvenor House. Tyson's friend Chef Patrick hooked us up. He was wonderful and made it a trip we will never forget!

Chef Patrick sent all these snacks up to our room to welcome us to London. This cheesecake was incredible!!


We walked through Hyde Park and had lunch:






Then we went to Harrods and that was quite the experience! It was massive and so fun to see:






We walked to Soho and shopped for a bit:






We had Sunday Roast in the Borough Market:

We walked around and saw the Shard, Tower of London and the Tower Bridge:









View from the top of the shard:





Breakfast at the JW restaurant was incredible! We were treated to everything!



After breakfast we took a double decker bus to Westminster Abbey:





The Westminster Abbey tour was so fun. This building was unbelievable! Truly remarkable how old and ornate and neat it was!














This is the coronation chair. It is supposedly the oldest piece of furniture that is still in use:

We saw the end of the Changing of the Guards at Buckingham Palace. It was so cool to see! Charlie loved this!








Wellington Arch:


More surprises in our room from Chef Patrick:


Chef Patrick and Tyson:

Afternoon Tea at the JW was an experience we will never forget! It was incredible!!

Chef Patrick created this menu around Beatrix Potter to celebrate her 160th anniversary:









This egg was so neat and delicious!







Tyson and I surprised everyone with Hamilton tickets and it was so fun! It was the highlight of the trip for Macie and Andrew. What a way to end the night!









We took one last stroll through Hyde Park before we headed to Paris:



Patrick sent us with a bag of snacks for the flight! He is the best!!

Beginning our journey to Paris:
