London!

We arrived at Heathrow airport and headed to the hostel on the glorious tube!		Once again, our London hostel was the famous Wombat's!		And it is still the best hostel ever!		The basement pub was everyone's favorite hangout spot.		And the view of London from the rooftop balcony of our hostel was fantastic!
Some highlights from our tour of the Westminster area:
Big Ben looked just a little different this time around!		But Boudicca still ruled over all the tourist traps.		After a hike around St. James's Park, we caught a glimpse of Buckingham Palace.		And then we hung out in Trafalgar Square!		We also got lucky (once again) as we happened upon a practice run for the Trooping the Colour parade
We also had many other adventures in London!
We visited the Museum of London Archaeological Archives.		We we got to see some behind-the-scenes processing of artifacts.		We also got to see some fascinating artifacts - like the switchboard from Buckingham Palace.		And a royal urinal!		And an ancient Roman miniature jar for catching tears?!?!
We also visited the Tower of London.		Which had some amazing weapons on display!		Everyone also went to the British Museum.		Most of us found the Vindolanda tablets, among other things!		Some of us visited Westminster Abbey.
And others went to Hampton Court Palace!		Which had some beautiful architecture.		And amazing paintings.
