London Day 15

Okay this is going to be mostly pictures and few words because I am WAY behind in posting and I don't ever have time when I have access to a computer.
(Since it's easier I will be referring to the pictures in this post as "today" even though they were certainly not taken today. It's just easier that way. Don't ask questions.)

TODAY was the daytrip to Dover and Canterbury.

Dover is most famous for Dover Castle which was built to protect them from Napolean and then later used in WW2. Also where the D-day boats came from.

Dover Castle

I love British signs

I wanted to go to the beach SO bad but we just didn't have time. I never thought that the first time I would see the Atlantic would be from the East side of it

Dover Castle.... again

lots of daisies

it was windy

first century lighthouse at Dover Castle

LOVEEEEEEEEE

Sound of Music???

Look................ free drinks at the Dover Castle gift shop. I would have tried that plum wine (the pink stuff on the left)

Here's one of the drawbridges at Dover Castle

I love this picture. LOVE IT

After Dover we went to Canterbury and walked along this creek on the way to the cathedral

Canterbury Cathedral.

I think this was me mostly being excited that it was almost time to go home. SOOOO tired.

Standing by the grave of Henry V (I think?) in Canterbury Cathedral

Group picture on the balcony attached to the cliff in Dover. It was so clear you could see France. No joke.

A couple pictures from Day 14 that I missed or others took:

Westminster Abbey

My first meal of fish and chips. I think I may have added this pic already. Sorry if I did
