London, England – Day 7
Most of today, our final day in London, was spent walking through two of the city’s glorious parks. To get there, we took a bus that dropped us off near Marble Arch on Oxford Street. Oxford Street, the main shopping street in London, was decorated with Union Jacks and was quite festive looking. We made a brief stop to buy some T-shirts and other souvenirs before heading into Hyde Park.
