Buckingham Palace

Today was a super fun day. We tried to watch the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace, but it was cancelled because of the rain. It ended up being the sunniest day yet! We did get to see them ride by on their horses though. Then we went to the Queen’s gallery and looked at some amazing jewelry, furniture, and paintings. After this, we were starving, so we found Pizza Express and ate some lunch. Then we went to St. Paul’s catheral. We looked around inside for a while and decided to climb to the top. We walked about 200 stairs to the Whispering Room, where we could look down at the Cathedral. Then we walked the rest of the 330 stairs up to the very, tippy, top. I got a little nervous when the steps started winding and the spaces got smaller, but the view was incredible! That night, we ended up getting some dinner with our fun friends and called it a night early.
