Time flies !
It was our last day in London ! Still remember how we walked 2.2 miles to the hostel from Victoria Station ! LOL
Time to check out the hostel :(

We must not miss the opportunity to see the change of guard at Buckingham Palace anymore ! Woke up earlier and had Subway as our breakfast, then we took the Big Bus tour to Buckingham Palace ! Buckingham Palace has served as the official London residence of Britain's sovereigns since 1837 and today is the administrative headquarters of the Monarch. Changing of the guard will take place at Buckingham Palace !
We reached there about 45 mins earlier before the time for changing of the guard !
But many people has already reached there to book for a nicer spot !
We were a bit too late, but it was still okay :)

Finally, we could see the guards marched in and out from the Buckingham Palace !
So grand and uniform !! Salute ! :)

Enjoy the pictures below ;)
From the previous day's experience, we decided to split into few groups !
Jack and Li Sin went to St Paul's Cathedral. St Paul's is London's Cathedral and embodies the spiritual life and heritage of the British people. Entrance fees is needed ! Read more about St Paul's Cathedral here
*Salute both of them as they were taking their heavy backpack to climb up the staircases!*
Some of them went to Oxford Street for shopping !
But me, K, Yu En, Fong Yee & Tae decided to walk to Westminster to board the Big Bus !
We wanted to have a relaxed Day 3 in London, no more rushing !
Hehe...
We passed by Westminster Abbey and it was opened !! But a long long queue outside :(
We didn't want to queue up as we have to board the coach back to Sheffield in the evening !
Wish to visit Westminster Abbey if I have the chance to go London again as it was the venue for Prince William and Kate's wedding !!!!!! Besides that, it has more than a thousand years of history !!!
Managed to take some pictures with the building only :(

Then, we board the Big Bus and have a relaxed tour for the whole great city !!!
The whole sightseeing tour took about one and a half hour :)
We dropped at Marble Arch and planned to go for a walk at Oxford Street before we went to Victoria Station ! :)
Didn't buy anything from there though. haha

This was a great trip !!!
The process of discovering the new city was fun although something bad happened too !!
But so what?? We still enjoyed the trip so much as we got to spend our time exploring the city with each other.
Who knows that are we going to have the chance to be together when we are working after graduate?
Really appreciate the effort by Jack & Jason for planning this wonderful trip ♥
