Lugubrious London

11/8/2016

0 Comments

 
I was trying to come up with a creative title for London, and I came across the word "lugubrious" on thesaurus.com. "Lugubrious" means dismal and I think that aptly describes my trip to London this past weekend. To be completely honest, I was overall disappointed by London. It had it's highlights, but I can say with absolute certainty that it's not in my top three places I've visited (I say three because I haven't visited that many places in my life). Even though I didn't fully enjoy London, I'd still like to share my photos. I hope you enjoy a small peek at one of the world's most famous cities.

As you can probably tell, I loved all of the colorful houses in this area.

We didn't stay on the upper deck long because it was very cold and windy.

Palace of Westminster + Elizabeth Tower

While many call the building the Houses of Parliament, Parliament is only a portion of the Palace of Westminster. The tower is also called Elizabeth Tower, not Big Ben. Big Ben is the name of the bell inside the clock tower.

I only have a couple of photos because you weren't allowed to take pictures of the crown jewels, the coolest part of the Tower of London.

The weather was a large part of why I didn't enjoy my time, but London just failed to live up to my expectations. Hopefully it will be better the second time around with my family in just a two weeks! ​
Happy end of the world/election day,
