Parliament Hill aka Kite Hill...


So I had heard of Parliament Hill forever and never got around to going up there - sad! Sad because oh what a beautiful view!

Apparently this hill had something to do with where Parliament met after being kicked out by the king right before the English civil war - or this is where their troops were or or or...

But who knows, right?! It's other name is 'Kite Hill' and I did see a kite or two....







This is 'the Stone of Free Speech'. It was around at least 200 years ago and was a center for political discussions...







Jolly ol' London below...





People enjoying the lovely day that it t'was...



















I honestly believed I was 'content' and 'smiling' in this photo...
Once I took a look I decided for my Mom's sake I needed to look happy!! So...










This felt like I was 'over-doing' it, but in the end, I look 'happy' ;)
Haha!
