Hi mummy!
I went to London today! There was a treasure trail, where you had to solve a pretend murder, that hostmum took us on.
We first had to get there by train. It took two trains to get to the beginning of the trail and when we got there I saw a nice water feature. It was right next to the station and I went to take a look. Some ducks were swimming amongst the water fountains. Then the trail began and we walked down near the Thames river. The over head trains were right by us and every time one went past, the whole world rumbled! Or that's what it seemed anyway. We soon came to a place with a nice view of The Shard. It's the big pointy building and it is very new. Next we came across a wheel sculpture, and then a big mosaic chimney. Interesting things to have in a street!
Soon there was another nice view, this time of the O2. It is round with big yellow spikes and lots of music events, shows and exhibitions are held there. Further along the road there was a big red flower which was good to use as a slide! The trail then finished and the murder was solved! We hopped onto another train and then onto yet another train.
When we finally got off of the train, we were at The Tower of London, a very famous and important castle. The crown jewels are kept there! Sadly, I didn't get to go inside but I had a look at it from the outside. Next we walked over to Tower Bridge where NiliHH completed one of her life missions.
Once NiliHH was done on the bridge, we headed home. I didn't make it home before falling asleep. We were all very tired after such a busy and fun day out. Hostmum left us to sleep on her chair and then took a nap herself!
Bye for Now,
Gigi Giraffe
