Well today we went to Kensington Palace. It is just a short walk from our flat on Gloucester Road. But it was very pretty on the outside. It really just looked more like a huge mansion instead of a palace. But I guess this is where Will and Kate just moved to. It is too bad we couldn't see that part of the palace!! The part that is open for people to see is all of these dark dark rooms where you can't even see the murals on the walls and they have all of this really creepy stuff inside. They made it feel like it was halloween and we were walking through a haunted mansion. No joke! It was not what I was expecting at all. So that really threw me off. But a lot of princesses have lived there. And it was cool to hear a little about each one. Like Queen Anne, Victoria, and Princess Diana.
Then we rode the underground to get to more of down town to go on a little city tour. But instead we got an underground tour. haha! I think we had to change subways at least 5 different times. It was nuts! Definitely an interesting way to get there. To get home we just did it with one change. So now we know what a lot of the underground stations look like!
But we then got to the National Theater and we got to see the pattern displays. It was good inspiration because we have to make 5 patterns from each country we have been too. So it was fun.
Then we got some sandwiches and headed home. We got home nice and early so we could pack. Tomorrow we are going on the train under the channel through a tunnel (so the chunnel) and we will be in Paris! So it will be an all new adventure.
