LONDON!

We are going to keep this short because we both have writer's block.

We left wigton this morning at around 9 30am after feeding our faithful 40 odd ducks and headed to Carlisle Station to board the 3 and a half hour train into london. The train ride went suprisingly quick which was good but I think the highlight was watching lauren sit there watching a DVD so silently then just randomly burst out into laughter whilst on a dead silent train. It made the trip quite good, Although the funniest bit was when she had 5 mintues to go in the movie (the last 5 minutes is the best bit) and the PSP died which I thought was funny. Until it happened to me that is.

So we walked to our hotel with two extremely heavy suitcases, two backpacks, a handbag and a camera bag. It was made easier that the hotel was literally right around the corner. The room is pretty nice, its got a full bathroom and a nice TV so we can enjoy watching plenty of Top Gear which Lauren has grown to absolute LOVE! (I may be exagerating?). After dumping our stuff we jumped in a cab to Oxford street which brings us to where we are now. We've had a pretty good look around now, Lauren has bought some shoes and I seem to be drawn to every London souvenir that is glass or in the slightest bit breakable.

We are just going to head out again and try and find something to eat at a reasonalbe price but who are we kidding, its London. We found an 10oz sirlion steak for £22.95 ($43ish) so it looks like Greggs for dinner! Although we haven't even seen one yet so im a bit disappointed. Then again I've had 3 today already so I shouldnt be looking for more.

We wont have much of a chance to post many more blogs because we dont have internet where we are so any chance we get we will post one at any internet cafe we can find.

Tomorrow we are heading out to Harrods then onto Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey and surrounding areas.

So we are off to have a bit more of a look around now so stay safe and we will post again soon,
Kristian & Lauren.
