Londontown!

Yesterday the BAFTA (British Academy of Film and Television Arts) Awards brought lots of famous people to London.  Rumor has it if you were in the right place at the right time you could see George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Brad Pitt, and me!

The horses and I before the Changing of the Horse Guard!  They parade down the street once a week to switch out the guards.

No, I wasn't in town to accept my award.  Maika still hasn't found out about that secret travel movie I've been filming from her suitcase but I'm sure when she does I'll be up for an award too.

We were in fancy fabulous London to enjoy the sites as proper tourists!  It's such a cool place.  We rode a double-decker bus, had high tea, and even toured The Tower of London.  

Here are a few things I've learned from being in The Queen's city:

-They drive on the opposite side of the road, so you have to look left before crossing.  In London they even paint reminders on the street saying, "Look Left!"

-No one uses dollars, they use pounds, which are also called GBP (Great British Pound).  The money is all different sizes and looks very different from what I'm used to!

-The showers and closets are smaller, but the amount of butter and cream is bigger.  They put "clotted cream" on scones, which might be the reason I'm carrying around a few extra layers of warmth.

-When you say goodbye to someone, you can add an extra word to make it fun, "Cheers!"

Look!  They're just like me!  This is on the side of a double-decker bus, an advertisement for my favorite store!

Guess who rode in this fancy car?

The Duchess of Cambridge, Catherine Middleton!

The Royal Carriage at the Royal Mews, where they keep the royal horses

Big Ben is actually the name of the bell inside the clock!

Tower Bridge

The Tower of London, complete with nut roasters outside

So goodbye for now, my friends.  Cheers!
