Welcome to Herne Hill! <3
Perfect spot for romance . . <3 went to Brockwell Park before we head to the Herne Hill bus stop :) 



Herne Hill bus stop.....going to Horseferry road..


Victoria Towers Garden and behind me is the Houses of Parliament...



Burghers of Calais
Buxton Memorial: was erected to commemorate the emancipation of slaves following the Slavery Abolition  Act.

Front view of the Houses of the Parliament; Uncle Alan shared that Londoners/British  build sculptures for their heroes who defeated the French. But of course, he has nothing against French men :) then off we walked to where people are going gaga in preparation for the Royal Wedding.

Westminster Abbey: This is where the Royal Wedding will take place, for preparation purposes, the church is temporarily closed for sightseeing so we haven't had the chance to see what's inside.

The famous BIG BEN: we really waited for  it. 2pm sharp,.. it rings every 15 minuites.
Fish and Chips for lunch!! yay!!(@ Wesley's Cafe)  Here in London they use vinegar and salt to add taste on the meal and it is really good. . :)




The old taxi. .  : Uncle Alan used to correct uncle jorge in using cab and taxi because he said that cab is just used by americans and taxi is for english men.





After having lunch we walked through St. James's Park to Buckingham Palace :)

People here are fond of going to the parks most especially when the sun is so high. They enjoy the heat of the sun and most men go on topless and some women are just wearing bras just to get tanned.


Prince William and the soon to be queen hahaha!



Miss London  haha
