London City

We were on a guided tour of London this morning. It is a large, vibrant, old busy city. 
We are crossing the Thames on the London Bridge looking up at the Tower Bridge.
Westminster Abby. Every monarch for the last 950 years has been crowned here.
Big Ben and the iconic "call boxes" in the foreground.
The official resident of British Prime Minister, 10 Downing Street. It is the small grey house in the back right. Kind of unimpressive huh? The police presence wielding automatic rifles out in front made more of a statement!

We saw 2 changing of the guard ceremonies this morning.  One was at Buckingham Castle. It was packed (and out tour guide thought there were way fewer people than normal. School is still in here!)
