We went to the London Aquarium and the fish were fascinating. It was big and had different themes : deep sea theme, iceberg theme, historic theme...

The Madame Tussauds museum was a true gem of our trip. Wax figures look fake on pictures, but in real life, they look very realistic!

Attractions

This is where I got to see the Crown Jewels, but, sadly, I didn‘t take any pictures, because it was prohibited. This is where the guards are. They had to wear those nasty helmets even in summer.

The Big Ben was stunning and the view also wasn‘t a complete waste of time. The Westminster palace was, mildly said, enormous.

Food

Fish and chips IS England. It was on every corner, has a delightful scent and it is just yummy.

The traditional breakfast consisted of toast, bacon, sausages, cooked beans, eggs and tomatoes. It was quite huge, the portions were made for giants!

Drinks

I was surprised by the fact that tea wasn‘t so special. The whole athmosphere was special. I drank only a bit, because the taste wasn‘t sweet, it was actually quite bitter.

Milkshakes were a special thing. I chose whichever fruit I wanted and there were so many different combinations, and all were so good!
