Day 13

Left the B&B and headed to London
(Let it be said: London is the hardest city in the world to visit for a day. Two words: Congestion fees)
The Three Sights: Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, and The Eye
Big Ben (Guy Fawkes was obviously unsuccessful)
The Eye

We then took a bus to London-Gatwick Airport and will spend the night awaiting out flight which is in about 9 hours. And that is a picture of us sitting, waiting, looking forward to sleeping in our own beds very soon.

Day 9

Pics from our Black Taxi tour of Belfast.

After the tour we left for the airport and headed to Edinburgh. Let it be said, this was a horrible experience. We practically fought our way to Scotland as we met delay after delay and security barrier after security barrier. Thankfully, we had an awesome evening in Edinburgh, and a great tour of a few of the sights the next day.
