We caught the train to Green Park where the tour started from...I took this photo for you Vireya...all the spring bulbs in Green Park. Technically this park belongs to the royal family but is graciously available for all to enjoy. The beautiful grounds of Buckingham Palace are behind this park.
DH and I were a bit early for the tour so we were able to choose what we thought would be good seats...and they were! Note the Ritz behind the bus.
The bus soon filled up with other tourists and we were off on our tour...
The first war memorial we saw....
The photo below shows Wellington's home. It is still owned by the present Duke of Wellington...
I loved this block...
Nelson's Column in Trafalgur Square...
Also near Trafalgur Square is the lovely church, St Martins in the Field...
An unusual sculpture...it is a horse head drinking...
The Canadian Embassy...
The London Eye...
The tower in the Houses of Parliament. The clock known as Big Ben.The Courts...
Another view of the Tower of London...
This is just a few of the photos that we took on the bus tour... But it's still a lot of photos for one post!! So I write another post at some time, about the river cruise that we took from the wharf near the Tower. It was all part of the Big Bus Tour program.

Brilliant! Thanks for all those pics. I love seeing them. Looking forward to the rest of the big bus tour too.
You look so smart in your hat, scarf and jacket (I love the purple) :D)

I always recommend those tours when my relatives visit London. My hubby was one of the builders who renovated Nelson's Column a few years ago. He has an amazing photo of himself at the top next to Nelson's head which is really huge when close up.
Wow, a picture of the Queen's spring bulbs just for me!
That's a fantastic bus trip - you've seen so many famous sights all in one go.
It is exciting to follow you on your trip! I know there will be a lot of interesting posts! Have a nice travel!
