Each of the tube stations looks different on the outside, but this one is really old and beautiful. South Kensington is a pretty nice area of the city. We walked past a Lamborghini dealership and Travis said, "That's what I want for my birthday!" Yeah, right!
Inside the Natural History Museum. The building was absolutely stunning and the displays were beautiful. We also went to the Science Museum. Rolf and I wanted to go to the Victoria & Albert Museum but the kids just didn't have it in them!
The four of us in Kensington Park. We sat on this bench for over an hour. We were just so beat and it was so hot. The bench was in the shade and by a bathroom so we were all happy! The kids spent, I kid you not, at least 30 minutes taking turns "writing" words on each others' backs with their fingers and then they would have to try to guess what words they were writing. It was surprising how content they were to just sit and relax. Guess we haven't been doing too much of that since we got here though! You know Rolf and I, relaxing is something we don't do on vacation! Quinn actually asked if the cruise would be more laid back than London has been. Mabye that's a sign . . . nah, we'll hit it again tomorrow! ha :)
Kensington Palace. Queen Victoria was born here and Princess Diana loved this home. The gardens were also very beautiful. They were doing extensive renovation on the grounds so it was difficult to see all of the palace and gardens.
