day 20.

LAST DAY IN LONDON.

It was a bittersweet last day in London... it was kind of sad, because London has been our home for the past two and a half weeks and we were just starting to get the hang of everything. But we are excited to go to France and see and explore Paris. So today we went and saw Kensington Palace (where Will and Kate will be moving into this weekend) and we did a walking tour of historical rooms that had to do with each Queen. There were 7 and we learned a lot about them with each themed room. We weren't allowed to take any pictures so I just have a shot of the outside..

After Kensington Palace we walked to this museum that was having a pattern exhibit. On the way, we got a little lost and went in a million different tubes. We basically went in a huge circle. To be honest I wasn't very impressed with the pattern designs... they kind of reminded me of grandma curtain patterns from the 90's. (no offense)

a cool building I saw on our way to the pattern museum

after the museum we went to the Hummingbird Bakery to get some famous cupcakes... once again not very impressed. As we came to find out they were trying to perfect the American cupcakes! haha

then we came upon Harrods, the dream store for every girl (who has money)


check out these chocolates!

this place had everything and anything you can think of! It was amazing! Check out these awesome lights :)

like I said... they had everything! Including a pet spa, with a little tread mill and TV playing Beethoven

Some of the things in London I will miss seeing...

it wasn't rare to see one of these... luxurious cars, sports cars every nice car lined the streets where we lived.

It was very rare to see an old car around here. Kensington was a very posh place. I miss it there already!

I'm going to miss these cute little alleys with cobble stone streets and adorable little houses

I'm gonna miss their colored doors

Mini Coopers were everywhere

I love Kensington!

our dessert from Hummingbird... a great way to end the day :)
