A day exploring trafalgar square


Well, here are the latest sights from my single exploring missions. I must say I am impressed that I havnt gotten lost so far! Although I have ended up in some cool places without the intention of arriving there at all. All part of the fun though.
The national gallery was very impressive, extremely unbelievably amazing paintings all around. Makes you realise why people have turned to abstract art, there is just no improvements to be made on what some of the artists have already accomplished!
SO Trafalgar square was pretty and most people looked to be having fun with the pigeons, there are no photos of pigeons because - i do not like them! I find them to be most rude and well unmannered! They are a proper pain in the rear when one is walking down one's street.

Saint James park had to be the prettiest, very cool and a lot of sights to be seen from the park benches. I saw cute cute squirrels - Jesse u would love one as a pet (ill sneak one home). I saw big ben peaking at me through some trees but when i tried to walk towards him he just kept disappearing, probably just playing hard to get - ill get him later. I saw the london eye. I saw lots of castle type buildings in the distance, still dont know what they are? I saw many a couples walking hand in hand on such a romantic valentines day ( i didnt love it).
















And finally i saw the somewhat overated Bukkingham Palace. Very plain, aside from a little gold frosting on some big gates, it kind of sunk into the surroundings. However grand it is - so everything around it. Unfotunately or fortunately (depending on who you talk to ) i was not there on the right day to see the changing of the guards.
My last stop was picadilly circus where i had to catch the tube, it was crazy. You dont understand how insignificant i felt! There were tall tall humungous buildings and bll boards all around me, in a really close proximity. I usually feel small but it was crazy to look up and all around me, i cant start to explain the feeling.
