British Museum:
The British Museum was absolutely packed with artifacts and tourists alike! We spent only a few hours there, hitting up the main sites. Although you could wander around all day, no one in our group was willing to fight the crowds in the name of old stuff. But we were able to catch a glimpse of the Rosetta Stone, some mummies, and a bunch of statues that stood outside the gates of Babylon

Royal Obervatory:
On our last day, we decided to venture to Greenwich, a little outside of the city proper. The small town was so quaint and inviting, and we enjoyed spending the afternoon exploring the Royal Observatory and hanging out in a pub.

Tea at Harrods:
While it may not be your normal tourist attraction, Harrods was one of our favorite stops! We visited the tea room on two separate days...it was that fantastic! The shopping wasn't half bad either!
