This was a VERY busy day involving LOTS of walking (14,656 steps so far!) so I will show the day more with pictures than with words. Suffice it to say that we saw new buildings, old buildings, ancient buildings, The Tower of London again, the Thames via boat, statues, palaces, bridges, monuments, The Eye (and no, Kim, we did not ride it today), the outside of Winchester Abbey (not open for tours on Sunday...may go tomorrow), Pubs which we discovered make good potty breaks here like McDonald’s at home, fancy gates, Buckingham Palace, Cleopatra’s obelisk, a HUGE protest in front of the Brazilian Embass (several hundreds at least), views across bodies of water, and two police who (at two separate times) helped us find our way back to our hotel! WHEW! It exhausts me just writing it down. Our weather, though cool, was perfect. The sun was out in all its glory and we enjoyed our views from both the top of our Hop on, Hop off bus and the boat. We are regrouping at our hotel right now, and are not sure if we are finished for the day yet or not. We have some thoughts for tomorrow, but nothing
definite yet. Today was actually the last day of our tour with CIE, and the next two days will be our own invention. We shall see what happens!

You seriously need to suck it up and go on the London Eye. I hate Ferris wheels and it didn’t scare me. And you can see so much up,there. The chances of it breaking while you are up there are relatively low.:)
