Europe Trip - London (19-20 Oct)

Monday, 19 October 2009

Our last day in London :(

We set off to St John's Wood Tube Station, to go walk over the Abbey Road crossing and write on the Abbey Road Studios wall, like every Beatles fan should!
























































After that we got to Buckingham Palace, only to find our that there will be no "Changing of the Guards Ceremony". I was NOT happy. :(














































Fortunately there was a horse parade on their way to the Palace.








After that we walked over to Trafalgar Square for souvenir shopping, and to see the South African Embassy, and Suid-Afrika written in Afrikaans, nogals!

















We then walked to the Embankment Tube, and went to Victoria Station. From there on a (normal above ground) train to Battersea Park, where Werner saw his highlight of the tour, Battersea Power Station. It was the cover for Pink Floyd's Animals CD.








That evening we went to see Wicked with the Contiki tour. Very good, although I felt like cr@p!

We left the hotel at 8h00, and took the ferry across the channel from Dover. Below pics of Dover's White Cliffs, and Werner with the crew...
