London ... in snapshots

[ Walked across London Bridge, turned to our right & had a gorgeous view of Tower Bridge with the Olympics rings]

[ First pit stop after getting lost. We found a cafe with free wifi, and our first coffee in London ]

[ Turned the corner to find Parliament house & Big Ben - so so stunning in real life, photos barely do it justice ]

[ Massive tourists .. posing with Big Ben & Parliament house - & other random guy in background haha ]

[ One of many many old, beautiful ally ways found running off the main streets of London full of cafes and bars - so fun to explore ]

[ Morgys clever camera skills - doing a panoramic of London from high above London in the London Eye ]


[ Morgys first experience at 'an original British pub' .. where he tried to work out which English Beer he'd like to drink, and seeing Trafalgar square for the first time ]

[ Another view of London from a top the London Eye ]

[ I'm THAT girl who poses like a loser with amazing bag pipe players at huge tourist attractions ]

[ Morgy Morgy, turn around, let me get a photo ... ]

[ The official changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace - so amazing ]

[ Outside Buckingham Palace just after changing of the guard - so incredible ] 

[ Spot the Tourist ... not us that's for sure - not ] 

[ I had an unhealthy obsession with Red Telephone boxes...I'm only sharing one photo, but I have too many to say ]

[ Where people get divorced .. apparently. Much too fancy for that I think ] 

[ A gorgeous old photo of the Royal Family over the River Thames - it was h.u.g.e ] 

[ Morgs a top a huge steel lion out the front of Trafalgar square.. My guy!! ]

[ Just loving life, in the middle of Trafalgar square .. having an amazing time ] 

[ My fav London shot - well one of...Black Cab, Red Telephone Box, and Red Bus ... ]

  2. I love your outfits as well, especially the first one! I think getting lost is absolutely mandatory when you travel. Sometimes I find that Patrick and I get ourselves lost on purpose - fantastic way to building better communication in a relationship! I'm glad you're still posting on Instagram Anna, I love keeping up with your adventures xoxox

  5. Loving your pics and updates so far =)
    Touching walls full of history is what excites me the most about going to England. I hope you can make it to Lincoln cathedral and Yorkminster. They both look phenomenal.

    1. Thank you Kell!! Great way to spend sleepless nights huh? hehe. We actually didn't end up making it to either of those places unfortunatley - but obviously they're on your list when you make it there. It really is goosebump spine tingly when you get in front of these old beautiful buildings, and get to touch it. x

    1. Venessa!! It was absolutely crazy in London with the Olympics but we wouldn't have changed a thing. Saw quite a few athletes walking around (with fans getting photos with them). It was all a go go :) xx

  13. Tell Morgs I am so proud of him for conquering the panoramic shot and that I offer my most humble apologies for doubting his photographic abilities by saying it was really hard to do. Oh me of little faith! Loving every single photo. Keep them coming xoxo
