Today we made a walking tour around the Thames in london city. Despite the "English" wetter (and the overcrowded tourist spots 🤪), we certainly enjoyed our stroll!. However, i recommend visiting the London Tower, the Elisabeth Tower, Westminster palace, etc.. in the early morning, just to avoid being around in an overcrowded tourist attraction 😀
