I thought I'd come in to central London and show you some of the popular sites. So.... Right now I'm walking along "Whitehall", Which is the road that connects to...... "Downing Street" Location of the official residence and office of the Prime Minister. We can't actually go to "Number 10" because the street is guarded.. but as you can see, one of the guards is standing in front of the gates. He's actually awaiting the very important delivery.. ..of the Prime Minister's pizza. and he looks impatient, so it must be late. I expect they're hoping for a discount. The River Thames is actually 36% tea. Up until the 1960's Londoners used to wash their teapots here.. ..coating the riverbed with tea-leaves. This is the "London Eye" It's called that because before the days of CCTV,.. ..it was used by the police to watch the streets of London for crime. The famous Elizabeth Tower. More commonly known as Big Ben which is actually the name of the great bell inside that strikes the hour. But more importantly... as many of you know this is also the location of... The Internet. It sits right there at the top, to give the best reception. There's one of the new style London buses. Designed by the award winning designer, and bounty hunter... Boba Fett. For a brief period, London was once known as "Brit-Cit". The former "Judge's" headquarters are still in use today. So of course, this is "Buckingham Palace". Very popular site at the moment now there's a new prince in town. The whole family is in there right now. Prince George is asleep... and if you look at the upper right window.. it seems Will and Kate are relaxing with a dvd. And by the sound of it, I believe they're watching Kate's favourite movie... "From Dusk Till Dawn" So that was a very quick look at some of the London sites. I hope you found it interesting, and I hope you learnt something!
