London in a day
... Ben, the houses of Parliament and Westminster Abbey. All very beautiful buildings that were set nicely against the blue skies.

London is EXTREMELY hot. Well, compared to Canada. I mean only last week it was still snowing. No matter how much water I drank, my thirst simply couldn't be ...
