After saying goodbye to Julie and the Jarmans we headed to church (Hyde Park ward) with Papa Jeff and Gammy Margie.
After church we headed back to Buckingham Palace to have another go at the changing of the guards
It was incredibly packed and Ruby and Alex were the only ones who really got a great view
Alex did a good job taking pictures and recording it for the rest of us to see later
In front of Buckingham Palace
After Buckingham Palace we had some Mexican food in Leicester Square, the kids each got a balloon (which would prove to be our undoing) and we headed down to Trafalgar Square
St. Martin-in-the-Fields
Me and the kids standing in front of Nelson's Column, notice the 3 balloons
A minute later, crying Ruby, minus a balloon and missing Alex, who was so upset by Ruby losing her balloon that he couldn't be in a picture
Sitting with with one of the four lions guarding Nelson's Column (balloon problem solved for the moment)
Ta-Da!
Papa Jeff and Henry
Alex, me and Ruby in front of the Tower of London
I tried to get a group shot but as you can see Henry is missing. That's because he was...
...freaking out because of his balloon!
We had planned to go inside the Tower of London and then to make our way back to St. Paul's. As you can see, Henry was in no condition for any more site-seeing.
So we took a few more pictures of the Tower...
...and Tower Bridge...
...and boarded a boat heading towards our hotel.

This was the closest we got to visiting St. Paul's. Looks amazing doesn't it?

What a fantastic trip to London! It looks like the whole trip was such a memorable experience and how cool that you got to do it with grandparents, aunts/uncles/cousins!
those pics of Henry crying are priceless.
