The group at Piccadilly Circus


The group at Piccadilly Circus.

After our orientation we went on the Jubilee and Bakerloo Lines to sightsee, bringing us to Piccadilly Circus. Piccadilly Circus is similar to New York Citie's Time Square with it's neon advertising and other attractions. It is the entrance to London's entertainment district. The leading sporting goods store, Lillywhites, is located in Piccadilly Circus. Piccadilly Circus contains the Eros Statue, erected as a memorial to the Earl of Shaftsbury, which is a familiar London landmark.

This trip ended our first day in London, and after Piccadilly Circus we headed back to the dorm for dinner and our evening plans.
