Shopping and sightseeing!

Today I woke up early because the children were crying. Later we went out shopping in Oxford Street. Then we went to Piccadilly Circus and took the tube to Greenwich. From there we took the boat on the river Thames. We stopped right next to London Eye and went for a trip on it to enjoy the view. From the top we could see Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, St. Pauls Cathedral, Westminister Abbey, and in the distance we could see Wembley Stadium, which is quite close to the house Therese lives in.

When we got back, Benji, my host brother for the week, had been waiting for me the whole day to play, hi's only 2,5 years old. He has a younger brother called Joseph, hi is only 1 year old. We took a double decker bus and sat at the front seats, it as was really fun :-)

It's been both sunny and cloudy, and not too cold. It's been a fun day :-D
