#23: See Big Ben

Big Ben was pretty cool if I do say so myself.
What amazing architecture.
And I absolutely loved hearing the strikes of the bell.
If you're in London and you hear them, just stop and listen for a moment.
And then picture that bell chiming for over 150 years, the same way it did in the times of horse and buggy, and knights, and the hippie era.
If your imagination is good enough, for a fraction of a moment you can put yourself in those times and feel complete with the universe knowing that you are also connected to that part of the past.






London has this great feel about it.
History meets modern day.
Little gems scattered throughout if you only but look.

#24: Ride/see the London Eye

When writing my bucketlist for the first time around I had "Ride the London Eye" on it.
But after riding the Singapore Flyer for our anniversary I decided to consider just seeing it a tick.




It was the perfect day when we went out.
Blue skies, great friends, new city, it couldn't have been a better time to be exploring London.
