10 days in London, England in May

They had just come off of 6 weeks of horrible rainy weather (even worse than usual) but when we arrived we hit a pocket of 25c to 30c weather with blue skies for 10 days straight!

We were there just before all of Queen Elizabeth's Jubilee celebrations for 60 years on the throne, and wanted to be out of town before all that craziness started... but the decorations were up everywhere!



It seemed like every store window was themed out in the Jubilee and I have never seen so much bunting up!

at Hamley's Toy Store - a 20 foot tall portrait made out of Lego blocks...
Oxford Street...
and the banners on buildings... outside a pub
and overlooking the Thames...
and we even ran into her in the DIY (do-it-yourself) department of Selfridges...
