The wedding was pretty much an all day event, we did go out and get dinner later that night. I had one day left in London and here's the rest of what we saw:
I liked this shot of Big Ben:
Here's CJ in front of the Tower of London. This was one place I really wanted to see, and after a bit of an adventure getting there (curse the improvements they're doing for the Olympics) we finally arrived!
CJ really wanted a picture with a real life, genuine Beef Eater:
The White Tower, built in the 11th century. I found it fascinating to see so many really old buildings:
CJ by a statue in front of the Salt Tower. The White Tower was the first building, it took about 400 years for it to become what we see today.
This wall was built around 1220:
The Tower Bridge:
Another view:
We got to tour Westminster Abbey, they left all the wedding flowers (and the trees) up for several days for everyone to enjoy. I think all but one of the Royal coronations have been held in the Abbey, and lots of famous Brits are buried there. We stood in line behind some very friendly locals; they had lots of interesting info to share and answered our questions. 
One last shot of the Parliament Building:
I had lots of fun on my trip, it was great to spend some time with my little sister and we got to see some awesome places!
