Notting My Head

Day 3: Notting Hill, Hyde Park, Tower of London, millennium bridge, Notting Hill Community Church.

Busy, busy day. But when is is not? 

This morning we started off by going to Hyde park and Kensington Gardens. A lovely place that I cherish dearly. We saw about half of the park, but are planning to go back tomorrow. I want to get my run in at Hyde Park--it's on my bucket list! 
Kensington Palace in the distance.

We went to Notting Hill Community Church after the park. It was rainy, but that doesn't ruin a day in London. The church was just as I remembered it from last summer--welcoming and joyous. The message was about prayer and how it is the foundation of our relationship with God. It's the communication. We should be intentional with our prayer and put effort into it, just as we do with earthly relationships. I loved the worship again--it always touches my heart. 

I love this area. 

Then we went to the Tower of London, for it is a must see experience for people who haven't been to the city before. On the way, I found a cute blazer for five pounds! Yay, deals! 

The tower changed a bit since last year, so it was cool to see the updates. We spent about three hours there--we had to take it all in!

We then got some fish and chips by the tower before heading over to walk across Milennium Bridge.

Mmmmm, those clouds.

Then we headed home! Well, our temporary home. And watched 'Young Victoria' because Kayla hadn't seen it. It's an awesome movie, by the way. You should watch it.

Long day tomorrow before heading out early on Tuesday to the USA!!! 

Cheers,
