We also went to Harrods just to walk through to see what they have. Harrods is a very expensive store...sort of like a Nieman Marcus, but bigger. They have a grocery store including a bakery with eclairs, a 4ft chocolate egg for Easter that cost 795 pounds, huge sundaes, gelato including Melon and Pineapple flavors, Krispy Kreme..there was even a decorated pig cupcake that I really wanted to get but didn't want to spend the money for it. I kind of regret not getting it-I wish I would've tried the different foods that I wanted to, but was held back because the price seemed a little bit too high.In the marketplace, they had a variety of fish and meat. Even the fish was alive in tanks. There was also expensive jewelry, makeup, purses. In their bathrooms, there was a worker to give you soap, mints, perfume, what ever you needed, and even a place to put tips for the worker. I felt very out of place in Harrods-it had rained that day so everything we had with us was soaked-my hair was a frizzy mess, plus we were just tired from walking around all day.
We also went to the British Museum which had a huge Egyptian exhibit and also had the Rosetta Stone on display. We met a girl from Baraboo, WI with her friend who knew Egyptian and so he translated some of the hieroglyphs for us. We also visited Trafalgar Square that night and took a lot of fun pictures.
On that day we also visited and toured the Globe Theater (just the replica). I really enjoyed the tour a lot-Our tour guide was really good and quite funny. Afterwards we walked along the Thames River again and got some dinner. That night, there was a rock band playing...again, it was tricky going back to bed that night.
