London start

---

End of night three and my legs are beat! Walked London for 9 and a 1/2 hours yesterday. Saw Buckingham Palace in the morning, in time for the changing of the guards...boring! Walked some of the most beautiful parks in the afternoon (Hyde, kensington, etc) - beauty day! Later, I checked out all the building stuff. Although it became rainy, Big Ben, parliament, London tower, St. Paul's, and westminister abbey - all but a few that were caught on my camera. A random chinese-fountain-art-gallery and Taize drop-in ceremony round out the day.

Today I trained into Windsor to check out their castle and the college Harry and William went to...the name of which has slipped my mind (left quite the impression apparently). Snuck onto their back gardens - beautiful, another sunny day!

Brenna has been a great host. Lots of chat over pub food and local pints. Onto megan's tomorrow and jess' saturday before doing Paris. Can't wait!

-Till the next one
