London un-tourists

Today was a full day as official tourists in London...well, almost tourists. We walked around and saw a bunch of stuff, but we didn't actually go in and pay for anything, as we were feeling the pressure of the pound. We took the tube to London Tower, saw the Tower Bridge, a cheap recreation of Shakespear's Globe theatre, Southwark Cathedral, St. Paul's Cathedral, walked across the Milennium Bridge to the Tate Modern museum (awesome), had lunch (again, goodies from Marks & Spencer) on the steps of St. Paul's Cathedral, changing of the guards at the Guard Palace, looked down the street to No. 10 Downing Street (where the Prime Minister lives-I had to ask), Big Ben, Parliament (with many references to European Vacation of course), Westminster Abbey, walked across the Thames to the London Eye (huge ass ferris wheel), had another warm beer in a London pub, then went back to Nigel's where we ordered pizza for dinner. A great day walking around the beautiful city. We love it here.
