Eastside of London- Sunday 2nd September

Yesterday we worked up the courage to go into the London Dungeons... after walking through Eastside (i.e. Jack the Ripper style) streets to get there we had to line up for 1 n half hours to get in but it was worth it. The dungeons are all underground and very old, they are now a theme park with rides and tour guides all dressed up going through interactive displays about torture of criminals, the plague and disease, Sweeny Todd (murderous barber who cooked people pies), the great London fire... all the scary gross history of London. Em n I got involved and were suprised at how good (although packed and bit claustrophic) it was down there. We then went across Tower bridge (and saw it open) to the Tower of London (yes another castle) and got a double decker bus to Trafalgar Square then Piccadilly Circus. Today we are taking it easy (very Londoned out) just went and picked blackberries with Ems little cousins so they can bake a pie, hehe. I think we will have one more big day in London before we move on. BTW it is Sunday today not Wednesday like it says- I am bit unco at this blog thing. Anyway, hope everyone well and enjoyed Fathers Day in Oz!!
