DAY 1- November 14th, 2009- London, UK
We landed at London-Heathrow around 8am in the morning, caught the Heathrow Express to Paddington Station, and then grabbed a taxi from the station to the hotel. When we arrived, the weather was awful. There were galeforce rains and winds- like 90mph! The Trafalgar Hotel had our room already ready, so we checked in and took a quick nap. Then we headed out to go sightseeing.
Thankfully there was an Underground Stop (Charing Cross) right beside our hotel, so we took it to the Tower Hill Station.

One of the Seven Ravens at the Tower of London. Rumor is that if the ravens ever leave then the kingdom will fall. (Notice the green GPS bands on the Ravens feet though...:))
