Today we were real Londonians; we took the train into the city and then rode the 'tube' all throughout London. We saw alot of the city through walking and taking the tube (for those of you non-Londonians the tube is what Canadians call the 'subway'). Anyway, just to name drop, we saw London bridge (which was not falling down), Tower bridge, the Tower of London (and all the crown jewels), the London Eye, Westminster Abby, Big Ben (the clock, not the horse..Perth still has that claim to fame), Buckingham Palace, St. Pauls Cathedral, and a ALOT of bad fashion styles. We slammed down some beer-battered fish and chips and rinsed our palates with some nice cold brewskies, bro. Graham has already been referred to as Prince Harry and he thinks he can milk that for a while.
Anywho, tomorrow we are off to King Henry VIII house to tour around then heading into London again to visit some Markets. All in all the day has been great, only a few blisters, some tired legs, some cloudy skies (no rain); but nothing a few beer/glasses of wine can't fix.
Blog soon,
Graham and Jess
PS we can't add pictures right now; they will come when possible (including the pictures of some incredible fashion statements)
Jess: With Stan Cathie, Margo Lynn Rick & Barb in the room the only question is " What are the obvious reasons for going to Amsterdam? Other than that you seem to be having a good time. Enjoy Life.
