My weekend was great. Our laundry is caught up, we did some sight seeing, and most importantly relaxed, ate some good food, and took a nap. Here is a little break down of what we accomplished this weekend.
Tate Modern- This amazing museum is located across the Millennium Bridge from St. Paul's Cathedral. The collection of art is really stunning, but just as stunning is the view from their many balconies over looking the Thames and St. Paul's Cathedral.
Millennium Bridge- A quick walk that has amazing views. You can get a good view of London Bridge, and there are lots of vendors selling roasted nuts, so it smells nice as well.
St. Paul's Cathedral- A truly stunning building. We have passed it many times and ever time I am in awe. It is beautiful, and massive. Here is a picture from Tate Modern, over looking the Millennium Bridge, and St. Paul's Cathedral.
John Lewis- This is a department store I stopped by while looking for a kitchen trash can. It is a massive department store that is fun to look around in, however I didn't find a trash can that I loved. I'll just have to keep on looking.
Church- The major event of Sunday was church. A major plus is that the tube station for the Hyde Park Ward is on the same line as the stop nearest our house. A downside is that it still takes 45 minuets to get to church. The Hyde Park Ward is located on Exhibition Road which is home to many of the London Museums (Natural History, Science, Victoria and Albert). The ward is also a five minute walk to Hyde Park. It is definitely a great area to spend a Sunday afternoon in.
