Dani and Thommo in London Town

Dani and Thommo eventually found there way to London. We did a few touristy things with them that we hadn't got around to doing yet.

After visiting the Olympic site, we made our way to Greenwich, went to the National Maritime Museum, the Queens House (The house was given by Charles I to his French wife Henrietta Maria in 1635) and the Royal Observatory, where we saw Greenwich mean time and stood on the meridian line.

We went to the O2 Music festical in Hyde Park, where we saw Powderfinger and Ben Harper, who were great, along with Eddie Grant, and others...of course, being England, it rained, but not the entire day, so all in all it was a lot of fun!
Also visited Hampton Court Palace, in Surrey, which was built in the 1500s.
