London by Jake Powell

Yesterday we went on a bus tour of London for three hours. We saw a bunch of different things from the bus like the London Eye, Big Ben (which is just a clock - I thought it was a statue of someone!), Buckingham Palace where the queen lives, the London Bride and the Tower Bridge. We didn't get off the bus to see anything up close yet but we are going to today.

After the tour we went to this cool McDonald's. The food was the same but some of it was called different things like "mayo chicken" was just a chicken sandwich with mayo and lettuce. They also have a McFlurry with Kit Kats - it was so good! Then we went to M&M world but it was just a bunch of different M&M things - no rides or anything - just a store.

After that we were walking around this place called Piccadilly Square and we went by a cinema which is what they call a movie theater. There was a blue carpet set up and a bunch of posters for Rise of the Guardians. We went over there and stood there for a while and it was cold. This police officer told us it was a movie premiere and a bunch of people started walking up the blue carpet. We even saw some famous people - Isla Fisher and Chris Pine. After everybody went in we started walking away and then a security guy asked us if we wanted to watch the movie. We said "YES!" so he gave us 5 free tickets and we got to go in and watch the Rise of the Guardians. The famous people were in there, too! The theater was really big and really cool. The movie was in 3D and I really liked it! You should go see it! I got to keep my 3D glasses, too!

Today we are going to go around London on the bus again and get off at the places we want to see. I am excited to see the London Eye up close. We are going to eat fish &  chips, too! I miss you guys and I will see you on Monday! Happy Friday!
