A few days in London...

I've been visting a friend in Greenwich, London. I've truly fallen in love with London. It's such an exciting city. There's so much to do and everyone has somewhere to be. I've also (kinda) conquered the underground! A proud moment.

Here's what we got up to. I don't have photos of everything (it's really inconvenient to pull your camera out of your rucksack when there's loads of people everywhere)

Day 1
We started the day with a visit to ZSL - London Zoo, if you're going here I would suggest a 3-4 hour time slot. We then went for a bite to eat in Pizza Express, before heading down to Camden Market. I was really excited to visit Camden. I'd seen it in a lot of it in BeautyCrush's vlogs. I don't really know what to make of it, and a lot of things were really expensive.

Day 2
I had 3 hours to explore Greenwich by myself, as my friend had a lecture.
I started off with a visit to the Cutty Sark (I would recommend doing this if you're ever in Greenwich, it took about an hour and a quater).I then went to the market. Before heading over to sit in the park. I went to the Maritime Museum, and walked up to the Royal Observatory. This was all abit rushed as I only had one hour. I would suggest 2+ hours.
We then headed to Westfields shopping centre. I was so glad to visit Kiko, Tiger and H&M Home! It was absolutely huge with amazing selection of shops and food for everyone. On the way home we detoured to pay a visit to the amazing poppies at Tower Bridge.

Day 3
For the last day I was hoping to visit the National History Museum and the Science Museum. The line was crazy for the NHM and the SM was closed as the Queen was opening an exhibition.
We found ourselves wondering round the V&A before heading for lunch and some shopping. I would suggest visiting the Theatre Exhibition - I really enjoyed it and found it so interesting.

London truly captured my heart on these 3 days.
