As you may have seen in my previous post it was my 18th birthday two weeks ago so I headed to London for the weekend as this is one of my favourite places to visit that I don't get to often enough. This post is photo heavy I know but i thought id let the photos do the talking! But i thought id briefly tell you about my trip to London, firstly we stayed in the Hilton Westminster in a suite, which I was very excited about as I've never stayed in a suite in the Hilton before and it defiantly didn't fail to disappoint! The room was lovely and had a view over London, with this room we also got access to the Executive Lounge where you could go in any time you wish and there was food and drinks available free of charge.
Whilst in London we obviously hit Oxford Street as this is one of my favourite things to do and definitely didn't fail to spend a small fortune. We also visited London zoo as this is something I've always wanted to do and it was actually a lot better than expected, the penguins where definitely my favourites! We alos went and visited some of the landmarks in London such as London Bridge, Big Ben and the London Eye which we obviously had to do, no trip in London would be the same with out doing so.
All in all we had a lovely time and i would definitely recommend London zoo to anyone but i also would recommend buying tickets online as you get to go straight in and otherwise the queues to get in are huge!

 What is your favourite thing to do in London?

    Great post - looks like you did loads in your trip to London! I lived there for three years and my favourite place was Oxford Street; it was within walking distance of one of my flats. Good times!

    Looks like you had lots of fun! I've never been to London to do touristy things. I've been to canary wharf and Leyton and Wembley all watching football but it was definitely fun

    You got so many awesome photos!
    I have to visit the Disney Store whenever I'm in London (not often at all haha), Harrods and Hamleys are always cool to check out too.

    Best wishes, Danielle x
