Last year, I went to London, where I met up with my family and toured through the UK with a friend. London was so big, though, and the few days there just weren’t enough. In order to see some things we didn’t have time for, I went back for a long weekend earlier this year.
I first flew to London Stansted. It was a late flight, and the plane was delayed, causing me to arrive late in the night. By the time I got through security, the last train for the evening was already gone. I had to take the bus to the city center, but it was still a ways from my hostel. I didn’t feel like braving the underground, so I actually downloaded the Uber app and got a ride to the hostel. It wasn’t necessarily cheap, although not too expensive either, and it worked out pretty well.
It was well after midnight by the time I got into my room, so I just went to bed.
The next morning, I started walking around the town. The first notable place I went to was Hyde Park and just hung out for a bit and read.
The Albert Memorial
Just some neat architecture
I then ended up at the Science Museum, where I spent the majority of the rest of the day. They had an entire spaceship area!
