Today we decided to do a free walking tour. starting in Hyde park. We had a really great guide I think he was a actor he was really knowledgeable and talked as if he was there but in modern talk saying things about skyping and using your iPads in that day. It was a great tour we walked to Buckingham palace( the flag was the yellow queeny flag which means " the queen is the house", they said she is here for the colour of troops on Saturday which is to celebrate t...
