This morning, we thankfully had a sleep-in ‘till 8:00am, and we had a breakfast near to 9:00am and then departed to Buckingham Palace. We went on a grand tour! The annoying part was that one of the rules was no photography!!! We had an audio tour and one of the audio people pointed out that in a painting there two kids wearing dresses we all thought that they were girls but… they were guys!!! Up to the age of 3 boys wore dresses!!! At the end of the tour we gave back our headphones and radios.

In Harrods, my favourite place was the pet kingdom they had these cute little dogs that looked like Chihuahua. Athough they were very expensive, I wanted all three! They also had Siamese kittens, but when I looked at them after 10 seconds they got taken away. For lunch I had scones and raspberry lemonade, DELICIOUS! In the toy section they had toy ferarris that actually had a working engine, but for 6,500 pounds I don ‘t think it would’ve been worth it.
At the end when we eventually found some certain people, we split up and went on a shopping spree! We went to Harrods and Hamleys (not going to say that they were toy shops…). The shops were huge!!! Hamleys was 4 storeys of TOYS!!! And 1 of lollies and choc. On the 3rd floor there were shouty men everywhere who kept singing! The most awesome toy that I thought was the car that could drive on walls! It works like a really powerful vacuum! In the end, I got two.
We went on the underground subway to get to a double-decker bus to Trafalgar Square, where we met to get to dinner at Cucina, an Italian restaurant. For our entrée we had bruschetta, for main we had chicken and for dessert some of us had tiramisu and the rest had vanilla ice-cream.
From Emma and Libby!
