House of Commons
The house of Commons is very interesting. As seen on TV, green seats are everywhere with tiny microphones dangling in front of them. You were not allowed to sit on them; if you did sergeant arms would arrest you! The house of Commons is a very exciting place also the thought that you are in the exact room on TV , and also that you have walked the same floors as the famous David Cameron!
Parliament Street
Parliament Street is full of amazing things such as 10 Downing Street. There is also some very formal guards – two on horseback and one standing straight in between. If you are lucky you will see the changing of the guard!
Cenotaph
While walking around London, you may pass the Cenotaph. Many stand in silence while remembering the people who saved many lives in the wars.
Changing of the guard
The changing of the guard is sometimes very amusing. Watching guards march around and switching people is an amazing sight to see.( the guards wear funny yellow hats) Even the horses switch! Tourists are free to take pictures of them with the guards but be warned the horses may bite and kick when they are annoyed so I would watch out if I were you!
The London Underground
Going underground is very exciting. While going down the sound of calming music fills the air as the soft wind gently strokes your face. . It isn’t very busy down in the underground as it is on top. The curving of the walls makes you feel relaxed and safe. Half way down, you may feel the rush of air attacking you caused by transport tubes that run as fast as cheetahs!
As you board the tube you may feel tense but there is nothing to worry about after a slight jerk the tube sets off into the darkness. During the trip you may see tourists tranced by their IPods ( a little peace and quiet! ) . when the tubes stop you may be lucky enough to find that only a few passengers board the tube, if you’re not so lucky, a sea of people barge into the tube so I would advise that as soon as you board the train it would be better to sit down , if you can’t, STAY AWAY FROM THE DOORS!
