We Conquered London. It Is Ours Now.

This weekend Derek came to visit, and we did SOOO much in two days. I'm going to write it as a list, because there are too many landmarks to simply chat about.

Friday: Tower of London, London Wall, Tower Bridge, Tower Hill, The City, walked down The Mall, Buckingham Palace, sat on chairs in St. James Park, Parliament/Big Ben, Number 10 Downing Street, walked by Westminster Abbey, Trafalgar Square, walked by The National Gallery, and saw a movie being filmed with an actor that Derek recognized from the movie Rome.

Saturday: St. Paul's Cathedral, Millennium Bridge, Tate Modern, Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, Borough Market, Southwark Cathedral, London Bridge, Monument, walked by 3 churches designed by Sir Christopher Wren and another small market, Royal Exchange/Bank of England, and ended by walking the entire length of Portobello Road.

Today we've stayed in. Derek is out right now purchasing his ticket to Edinburgh at Kings Cross Station. My word of advice with that is to not go to Europe without a credit card.
