Today we met up with Chelsey to ride the London Eye. Its basically a big ferris wheel encased in glass that gives you amazing views of the entire city, especially those historic sites along the River Thames. We were lucky that today was such a beautiful and clear morning so we could see everything.
After that we wandered around until we found a great Italian restaurant to eat lunch at. We then headed over to Bond Street for some shopping. We found some really great chocolate shops and silver/antique shops that were great and they're all mixed in with the top fashion and jewelry stores (Louis Vuitton, Chanel, De Beers, Tiffany & Co, etc.) Everything here closes rather early (around 6) so we ended up leaving around 5:00 to head back to the hotel. After dropping Chelsey off at her flat, which is in a gorgeous location much better than where I'm going to be living, Mom and I ended up just staying in again tonight.
Tomorrow we plan to go visit Windsor Castle which I'm sure will be beautiful and highly informative.
