A Visit to the Queen

The day after Christmas, the buses were running again so we ventured out to see the Queen in her palace. The kids were so excited to ride the double decker buses.

The girls insisted on sitting up-front on top so as not to miss anything.

We knocked on the gate to announce our arrival at Buckingham Palace, but to no avail.

This guard was not budging to let us in.

So, we posed in front of the palace with all the other tourists.

Never fear, we were able to get in a few other national monuments as well. I love seeing Big Ben peek over the tree line. There is something magnificent about it.

On our walk back to the bus station, we had a great open view leading up to the Arch.

This was only Adventure #1 for the day. Stay tuned for the rest of our adventurous day!
