The London Eye is a ginormous Ferris Wheel, the biggest you’ve ever seen. You ride in good sized rooms with a group of people. From the top, we saw the River Thames which divides London into the North and South banks, Buckingham Palace, Big Ben’s Tower, and a playground below.

We went to the playground after we rode the giant Ferris Wheel. It was a pretty cool playground like an obstacle course with lots of rope webs to spider around on. The playground is right next to the Shrek tour, the Aquarium, and the London Dungeon. We decided we’ll have to check those out later.

The river walk is full of street performers including musicians and robots. The Robot man is a human in disguise. He looks so realistic with his buttons and armor stuff and wires that stick out, but the most realistic thing about him is when he moves he makes a robot noise. Buzz. Buzz. Vrrr. Eee. We gave him a pound, which is like a coin dollar, so we could take a photo with him.

After playing all day, we went to a Street Food market. I ate Chips there. Chips are french fries, but better. They are thicker and made with fresh potatoes. And what I think of as chips, like potato chips, are called Crisps. I eat a lot of chips, the french fry kind.
