Leaving London
The stay in London (well, Acton) was really nice. We went into the city yesterday to explore and get pictures. The pub connected to our hostel is a Polish meeting place and last night was the 'Polska Dance' complete with a DJ and many drunken Poles dancing. A lady needed to ask if the table next to ours was free and she did so in Polish! They sung along to the folk songs when the DJ played those. We weren't expecting to be immersed in such a culture in London of all places!
Now for pictures of the city:
The Wellington Arch and a random horse parade

The intro marching band at the changing of the guards. I had to lift my camera above my head to take this because it was so incredibly crowded I couldn't see anything.

Tyler spotted this lady tickling her husband's butthole walking down a very populated street in London. I found it inappropriate and hilarious.

Tyler was excited to see them because there is a racing track through them in some game

A view of the eye in the square where there is a horse parade on the Queen's birthday. My guess was that the area was used for jousting and it turns out that it WAS in the olden days! I was proud of my guess.
