I Love London, but NOT the Heat

Shortly before returning to the states for the summer Amy and I took a short trip to London.  I had been twice before, but this was Amy's first experience there.  The sights were exciting as usually, but the heat was NOT!  I ended up getting a sun burn during our hop-on-hop-off bus tour. :(  Our hostel also had showers that did not allow you to determine the temperature of the water.  The shower was set at one temperature...scalding.  It was scalding even without a sun burn!  All in all, we had a great time together.

Fun British Cars...I'd love to have a scooter like that!

Scary experience, but loads of fun!

    Hi Teacher Mr. Bill,

    I hope you're not overheating in the 90-100 degree temperature.

    Who's sword in the window? Whose?

    The sword belongs to some king. I have not idea whose sword it is. :)

    Have a great day! :)
