Got permits from Works office to take photos of places in London. We later went to the Strand & Piccadilly. Traffic here is very brisk. About 12 noon we caught the bus for Regents Park & the London Zoo, which is an Ideal place & well worth the day of Inspection. We done a bit of wondering about during the evening. My word a fellow would never run short of a girl here. They seem very fond of the Australians.

Today has been quite an eventful day. We visited Hyde park & Rotten Row during the morning, coming back to Trafalgar square by Motor. I took snaps of the following place Whitehall, Queens statue, two in Hyde park, Parliament House, & Buckingham Palace. We spent the afternoon going over London & Suburbs in a motor which cost me 12/- being 1/3 of the afternoon. We all had quite an enjoyable time. I now have quite a good idea of London & surrounds. We motored home about midnight pretty tired.
