London was a very busy experience for myself and Heather. We drove for about forty minutes from Little Shelford and parked at a shopping centre at Walthamstow (an outer suburb of London). We then caught the underground train to Green Park station which provided us with a short walk to Buckingham Palace.

Wow! We really didn’t expect such a big crowd and the opportunity to embrace the Coronavirus. (hopefully not!). It was so busy because of the changing of the guards. I took a few photos and then we ventured along Birdcage Walk which became Great George Street to arrive at Westminster Bridge. Which afforded views of the Thames and the London Eye. 

Other features we saw along the way were - St James Park, Big Ben and Westminster Abbey. The squirrels in St James Park were very special indeed! 

We then walked back to Buckingham Palace where photo opportunities were freely available. 

The Churchill War  Rooms earlier  in the day was of course the highlight of our brief trip to London. See Churchill War Rooms Gallery for photos and more information. 

We only saw a small section of London but nevertheless thoroughly enjoyed the experience. 

You need to stay in this beautiful city for a few days to see all that London has to offer - and . . . expect to do a lot of walking! 

We had a wonderful time. Looking forward to our next visit!
