I got to spend my next to last weekend abroad in London, England! We had a great brief visit to the city. We arrived late on Friday night, and had an early afternoon flight on Sunday. As a result, we fit all of our sightseeing in on Saturday. As per usual in London, it was a dreary weekend. We started the day by Ubering from our Airbnb outside the city to a vegan restaurant downtown for breakfast. Then, we walked through Kensington Park to Hyde Park. We continued walking to Buckingham Palace, Big Ben and The London Eye (saw it across the water) before stopping for fish and chips for lunch! Then we walked to Trafalgar Square and Piccadilly Circus. Finally, we walked 3 miles along the water to the London Bridge and Tower Bridge, making the total mileage on foot around 15 miles!
