Despite the quintessential rainy weather in London, my stay there was actually really enjoyable :) On Sunday my cousin and I visited the Kelvedon Hatch Secret Nuclear Bunker (built in 1952). I'm a bit of a Cold War junkie so it was super exciting to see where the British government would have relocated in the event of a nuclear blast. On Monday I took the ultra-touristy "Big Bus Tour" of central London. We hit all the major sites and even took a small cruise on the River Thames!
While I didn't catch Harry Potter 6 (I'll be sure to find a theater in Belfast!), I did manage to visit Platform 9 3/4 at Kings Cross Station. They even had a little trolly cart stuck in the wall for photo-ops :)
Speaking of photos, I realized that despite the tragic loss of the USB stick, I can still upload pictures directly from my camera. Here are some snaps from Sarajevo and London:
