Today we decided to do a free walking tour. starting in Hyde park. We had a really great guide I think he was a actor he was really knowledgeable and talked as if he was there but in modern talk saying things about skyping and using your iPads in that day. It was a great tour we walked to Buckingham palace( the flag was the yellow queeny flag which means " the queen is the house", they said she is here for the colour of troops on Saturday which is to celebrate the queens birthday), Clarence House, trafelga square, changing of the guard, parliament, Big Ben and westministerabby. We had been to all these places but it was good hearing all the history. We gave the guy a tip as it was free but you had to, or should tip the guy. We headed to the pub with a few of the others I had bangers and mash thought I better try it, it was ok. We then went to St. Paul's cathedral to have a look it was huge and pretty nice looking we then headed home for a rest for an hour before going out for the jack the ripper walking tour. The quide this time was not as good as the first but seemed like a nice guy he took us all around east London telling us about Jack the Ripper and alot of the hangings that happened. He showed us where all the boats left for Austrslia with the criminals on it and why we call them POMS because the place where all the convicts stayed before they left was called prison of m( suburb which of the name has slipped my mind). It was a good tour but not as good as this morning we headed off to westminister to get some photos at night of big big and the london eye. Then went to bed about 1230am.
