Sarah J's Fully Sick Travel Page
Hey everyone,
My time in London is just about up now. I leave tomorrow for Falmouth in Cornwall.
Since my last postcard...i've seen quite a bit.
On Wednesday I went to Madame Tussauds, the famous wax museum which was really fun...I got my picture with all the stars, including Colin Firth, Brad, Tom, Hugh, George, Beckham and Einstein. I'll post pics as soon as I can, But at the moment it's proving rather difficult as England seem to be lagging behind when it comes to technology.
On Thursday I went to the Tower of London, which has been standing since 1078 and is famous for the beheadings and torture that took place there. In the tower are the crowne jewels...which are rather nice, I saw the largest cut diamond in the world...the star of Africa which is a whopping 530 carats! I joined a tour of the tower, the guy was a crack up and I learned alot from him. I also got to go in the church where 2 of the wives of king Henry the 8th are buried as well as Thomas More, who died a Martyr at the hands of Henry the 8th (i don't think i like him very much) and later became a saint.
I have to go, but i'll post the rest of London soon.
Miss you all.
Sarah
