London Darling

The name of the game yesterday was walking. We started off by visiting Stamford Bridge, the football stadium where Chelsea FC plays soccer and calls home. We then had lunch at an odd Indian Burger joint??? Went back and fitted ourselves with coats and headed out to Hyde Park seeing Royal Albert Hall as well. Then at night we went to Piccadilly Circus and were wowed by the bright lights and tons of people. We barely missed the London Premier of Total Recall and saw a Colin Firth look alike! Lots of the tourist crowded around him taking pictures but we knew it was a FAKE!!!

We also managed to go into the M&M's World Factory! (Check out the pictures) It was a dream come true! Four floors or colorful and tasty chocolate delight. This place was packed on every floor and had so many cool items like the M&M filled champagne bottle! Tasty! After we filled our tummies with chocolate, we walked down the main road in Piccadilly Circus to see all of the national flags of the competing countries during the Olympic events. At the end of the street we ran into the BBC tower! It was very tall and lite up in blue.

This morning will be our last day in London as we move our travels to Manchester soon. We had an amazing time with all the great sight seeing and and our relaxing park walks. Off to the train we go!
