I'm typing this right now from my hostel in Goteborg in Sweden, but I have been in Europe the past week, and last week we did the Small Car Big City tour. I've attached a link to the album at the bottom but I must say it was heaps of fun!

Our driver, a linguistics student who moonlights as a comedian as well was a huge London geek and he had so many trivial facts that we didn't know. He also was able to take is into a few areas the big bus tours can't.

My favourite moment was when he asked us if we had our seatbelts on and he yanked the steering wheel around a corner into a tiny, tiny street. We laughed but then he did it again, this time into a tunnel leading under the building, fanging it down the tunnel and half way down there's an S turn, then a sharp corner where he slammed on the brakes for a speed bump. Was very fun!

If any of you ever end up there it's definitely worth doing.

Oh and it was a 94' model.

Big pic warning.

Also I went to the science museum and saw the cross section mini!

I am the 'young kid' and the 'pretty girl' is my sister.
