1/4/09 Tours of London and first pub

Started our walking tour at 11am which featured many of the famous conspiracies that took place in the area of London we lived in, including the Cato Street Conspiracy. We saw some other interesting places like Madonna's old house and some monuments.

Next we came back to the flats and started our bus tour at 1:30pm. We went all over London and saw tons of important sites. We walked around Buckingham Palace where the royal family resides and saw Westminster Abbey and Big Ben. We visited St Paul's cathedral, the interior of which was particularly beautiful, and a church service was in progress.

At night we went to the pub around the corner from our flats named the Duke of York. It was small with a homely kind of atmosphere, and I had a decent tasting pint of some English ale that I don't remember the name of. The bartender poured everyone free welcome to London shots and mine was some licorice tasting liquor. Headed back to the flat and went to bed.
