We had a GREAT day in London. Our guide literally wrote the book about the insiders guide to London and we learned so much about the history and so many great stories throughout history
! This morning we saw pretty much all of London with a few quick photo stops.
we had lunch at a pub with "beef and stout". we then toured the Tower of London, saw the crown jewels, hear all of the stories of torture, etc. we then took a boat ride up the Thames saw St Paul's cathedral.fd
The alumni dinner was nice. 4alumni came and it was nice to meet them. OK. It's late and time for bed....NJ
The best part of the day today is that we were all awake enough to enjoy it. The tour of London was relaxing, beautiful, and incredibly fun. It's unfortunate the we have so much to do and such little time. If tomorrow is half as nice as today we will all be very happy. Great group...great trip...time for some sleep...MC
Just a few thoughts on some of the odd trivia from Warren... Apparently clothing was stored in the toilet area because something in the urine killed the lice that lived in the clothing of the time period. I'm sure Warren (our guide) had plenty of other trivia - he was a font of knowledge - but that's the only one I can remember just now. Signage at the Porterhouse pub made me laugh - "No children allowed" and "No football colors allowed". WRH
