Hello London!

I am already exhausted from my 2nd day in London! Today we went on a tour bus to a few places...and it was amazing! First stop was Windsor Castle and it was one of the most gorgeous places I have ever seen. It is so crazy to see such detailed architecture and have the buildings be so ancient. Each place we went to had an audio guide tour...meaning you have to hold up a remote control looking thing up to your ear and press buttons at each stop along the way. I can't upload pictures until I get home but here is a picture...

Next stop was the Roman Baths. There was a chief priest there and he gave us a blessing...he was dressed up in character in order to give the real feel of the times the baths were used. The water is super hot but we weren't allowed to feel it. Most of the original structures have fallen but it was still amazing to see the pillars that were still standing.

Last stop of the night was Stonehenge! We were exhausted from the long day (we left at 8am and this was about 5) but it was so worth it. It was very calming to just relax and listen to the history of the stones after such a long day. Ok well this is my friends computer so I have to get off....having a blast though!
