After a short stopover in Keflavic, we flew to London for our first adventure.

Expectations vs. Reality
1. It was cold and raining when we arrived in London and, to weather wimps like us, it was quite brutal.
2. Since we’re traveling with limited luggage, I guess it was not surprising that our first order of the day was looking for a laundromat to do our laundry, or else we’d be – let’s say not politically but aromatically incorrect, or I guess a better word was disgusting. But, nonetheless, everything was lovely.

Our trip to Central London was like going to Disney World. There’s just so much to see. While it was not my first time in the city, it was for my husband, and to share his amazement while exploring some of its historic venues together was a treat in itself. It’s simply spellbinding!
“When exploring London, you will come across lots of excitement by chance, so try to take everything in rather than just rushing around to all of the major tourist haunts.”
