London Theatre & Sightseeing with Phil & Netty

Our senses came to life on our wonderful holiday and wherever we went we were infused with excitement.  We all agreed that it really must be the best city in the world!
 
We stayed in an amazing hotel in Russell Square and were perfectly located to explore the city to its fullest extent!
 
 
We watched the AMAZING Charlie and The Chocolate Factory at the wonderful Drury Lane Theatre.  We were taken on Charlie's exciting journey and we watched in wonder at the astonishing special effects!
 
 
We were very touched by the sight of the poppies at The Tower of London and we were very moved.  What a sight it was looking down over the sea of poppies.
 
 
 
 
 
We had an exciting river cruise from Westminster to Greenwich and back again, taking in the impressive city sights all around us!  We marvelled at Big Ben, The Houses of Parliament and St Margaret's Church.  We had a fabulous ride on The London Eye and we all loved looking out across London.
 
 We went inside Westminster Abbey and wandered around in amazement at the beauty.  We learnt about Kings and Queens of bygone days and revelled in its rich history.  We watched the Horse guards Parade at Buckingham Palace - but we didn't get an invite to tea from the Queen!
 
 
 
We spent a fantastic afternoon in the Natural History Museum - what a brilliant place!  We learnt about prehistoric animals and met a terrifying T-Rex!  We went into the Volcanoes and Earthquakes gallery and discovered a world of massive mammals!
 
 
 
We went to The Albert Hall and to Harrods, where we did a spot of shopping! 
 We were in awe of the sheer size of the store and were wrapped up in its magical pre-Christmas atmosphere!
 
 
We even caught a glimpse of Prince William in his private police escort - what a treat!
