London
Arrive London (2 nights) July 15th, Day 2
We arrived in England to typical London weather, a little cloudy and rainy, but nice never the less. What a thrill was to be in Europe! We stayed two nights at the Hilton Olympia. Our Hotel was located just outside of town, but with-in walking distance of many points of interest. After checking in we were excited about seeing the sights. We headed out to Kensington Palace, which is where Prince Charles and Lady Dianna lived. It's been the private residence for Royal Family’s since 1689. Queen Victoria and Queen Mary were both born there. We visited the gardens, saw Albert Hall, did a little shopping and enjoyed an early dinner before heading back to the hotel. The city reminded us in many ways of San Francisco. Nice, old Victorian buildings. The time change was catching up with us and we conked out back at the hotel.
