so, look at the following pics and see if you can figure out why the title of this blog is "all hail the queen"...
Trafalgar square
The living wall...it's a living painting of Van Gogh, I thought it was quite unique...
this is the painting that the living wall was designed after
Nicole's first brush with Harry Potter fandom...this street was the inspiration for Diagon Alley (have no clue how to spell it) in Harry Potter...
Here's the Queen- oh, I mean Nicole (totally didn't mean to make her have a crown, but just noticed it when I loaded the photos...)
Just a bit windy...
2nd brush with Harry Potter Histeria....this is the millenial bridge (the one trashed in the beginning of Harry Potter 6) with St. Paul's Cathedral in the background
Nicole says that I never have pictures of me...here's one for ya...
the London Eye
all of us on the London Eye...
views from the top...
the star indicates where Kate and William kissed at Buckingham Palace...
my quick attempt to photoshop without a mouse...

My attempt at making a cool picture...
Nicole with classic London behind her
the London Eye...glad I'm not in the 1:00 stall (think of the clock hands...) would have been as bad as the ferris wheel at Disneyland. We had to share the "pod" with 5 people who looked like they wanted to be Michael Jackson with rattails, B.O. and boy earrings, needless to say, not our choice of men- luckily the "pod" was well ventilated!
Tomorrow off to Burghley house and Stamford!!

This looks like fun, I never made it to the London Eye when I was there but I loved Parliament, Big Ben, St. Paul's and the centennial bridge. We ate at a ;ittle pub on the other side of the Bridge, it was my first English Fish and chips and mushy peas! I hope you have awonderful time! Aunt Bonnie
