London
We are in London. We have done a lot so far and my feet hurt, partially because I have blisters from my new shoes (I am dumb), but also because we have walked a ways.
Anyways..the flight was long but good, we only crashed 6 times. (Joke) We have seen a lot of stuff so far, here is the list. The Tower of London and the stuff that accompanies it, the Tower Bridge, St. Peters Cathedral, Imperial War Museum, we walked through Trafalgar Square, the Tate Modern art museum, millennium bridge, the ferris wheel, Big Ben, Westminster abbey, that building that Jose said looks like a rocket ship made of glass.
I am 95% sure that we will be heading out of London tomorrow after a visit to the National Gallery. We probably missed some things, but that only gives me more reason to come some other time.
Oh, I havent had a chance to hook up my camera yet. But I am taking them, and yes they have us in them too.
I will probably think of something else to write about in 15 minutes, but thats how it goes. Thanks for the comment Jon, just for it Ill admit that you made Gurglemurf up.
Leave some comments and/or email me.
Cya later,

Oh yeah, I forgot about St. Paul’s Cathedral. That was definitely my favortite cathedral in the world. It was built by Sir Christopher Wren and was completed in 1712 in the Baroque style. It has the second largest dome of any church in Europe (the world?). If you go to Rome and Florence then you will see the 1st and 3rd (St. Peter’s Basilica and the Duomo). I don’t know if you will have time since you are leaving soon, but go to Evensong at St. Paul’s if you can, it was beautiful when I went, one of my favorite parts of the trip. Sounds like you’ve seen a good bit of London. I bet you’re really sad that you’re leaving the pound system behind. I’m guessing Paris is next? I’ll let you know the must see pieces at the Louvre and the Musee d’Orsay should you choose to go there. Or are you going to Scotland or Ireland? Oh, and please tell me you went to a pub. Or did you see any shows? I guess it might be kind of tough since you’re on a budget, but London is famous for its theater, as I’m sure any travelling in the tube will inform you. Ok, keep us posted. I wish I could be there.
