With the help of our very good friends, who now live in England and who invited us there, we had one day available to visit (some parts of) London. Of course, we couldn't cover everything we wanted to see, but we managed to get an idea of what this great metropolis is. We strolled along the Thames, stared at the Parliament Palace (unfortunately Big Ben was being renovated, and we couldn't see much of it) and visited two of the greatest cathedrals, Westminster Abbey and Saint Paul's. After a long day, before we returned to Warwick, we had a very nice dinner near Saint Paul's Cathedral and we enjoyed the company of our friends, sharing our impressions.
It was the very first time when we visited something so big in such a short time, but still, we were satisfied with our chosen highlights of the city.
