Edinburgh, Scotland - Day 6

After taking the train from London to Edinburgh, we explored Calton Hill. There were many historical buildings on the hill along with a stunning view of the city.

London - Day 2

When we booked the tickets to come to London, we did not know that it was during the time of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. We were able to see rehearsals for the parade that will happen later in the week.

We also went to St. James' Park and saw beautiful flowers and waterfowl. To close out the day, we saw the road of Tower Bridge be lifted to let boats pass.

London - Day 1

Arrived in London. Compared to Scandia, there are a lot of people walking, biking, and using public transportation. A highlight today was visiting The British Museum. The wealth of history and art at the museum far surpasses what I thought would be there.
