Had a great day today! Such a strange feeling that I'm on the other side of the world!! Missed out on going to church - went shopping on Oxford St instead. Don't think He minds! Bought a really nice umbrella - £3! Lots to see on oxford st, must revisit!

Met Rob at 1pm. We went to the Camden Markets! What fantastic markets! I love markets, and these are easily the best I have been to! Lots of really unusual things! Heaps of quirky bags and shoes and fun souveneirs.

From here, Rob showed me around a few of the touristy areas; Buckingham Palace, the Thames, Southbank, Picadilly Circus and I also saw the Big Ben, the Eye and the Houses of Parliament from a distance!

I really like the tube system. really easy. If i can do it, there's hope for anyone!

My hotel is beautiful by the way, the view from my window shows some of the London city. I partly watched the sunset - at about 9.30! Much slower than in Sydney!

So this is Picadily Circus? What a crappy circus!!
What the heck is Picadily circus anyway!!!? Mum is constantly talking about your trip and where you are and keeps telling everyone that will listen about what you're doing. Also everyone keeps asking if i miss you. Flippen heck, you have been gone for like 3 days and your still annoying me from across the world. I bet your getting cut about that. Or like crying. Good thing I'm not with you coz that would be awkward. How high is the london eye/aix/ eeyeuyuejhree? Seen charlie or harry yet? Is rob tappable? Did you go to that big posh shop that all those celebrities go to but is pretty much like a fancy version of peters at kensington?(ZZZZzzzzzz)Where to next? see ya on the flip side
