Day 10 - Last day in London. We have had an amazing time here in London. We managed to see most of the major sites in and around London thanks to our good friend Eva. She asked us what we would like to see whilst here and after sending her a list before we left, she told us that it was too much to fit in given the time we had here. I took her advice as a challenge and we dragged poor Eva all around London stopping only briefly at monuments and sites for a quick picture or two.
Buckingham Palace
We managed to see Greenwich, a quick cruise up the Thames, the London eye, Tower Bridge, Big Ben, the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, Buckingham palace, St Paul's Cathedral (where we climbed 528 steps to reach the top of the dome), National art Gallery, National Library, Harrods, Trafalgur Square, most of the monopoly streets, the city of Bath and some rocks in a field (also known as stone henge).

The highlight was when Eva got us tickets to the theatre to watch Sweeny Todd starring Imelda Staunton (who you may recognize from films such as Harry potter and nanny mcfee). Another nice surprise was when we were in the city of Bath. Chon asked me what are the chances of meeting someone we knew in London and I confidently told her zero to no chance. I was sort of right as it was in Bath were we bumped into some friends from Tassie ... which was very surreal.
