London 20Aug

---

Headed by Bus into London, visited the Giraffe Cafe one last time for a coffee. The weather is doing its best to rain, but can only manage to spit lightly. Typical, its first day of the last test at Kennington Oval. I went up to Trafalgar Square to soak up the buzzing atmosphere, then headed over to Tate Modern which displays 5 floors of modern art. The building is a converted power station (or substation) and is huge. I walked around there and found some amazing art from the last 120 years, including famous artists like Cezanne, Monet, Picasso. Some of the more recent works are amazing too.

Wandered back to the north side of the Thames to the walkabout pub. For my last afternoon in London, I wanted to be an aussie. Spent a couple hours eating australian food in an australian pub watching the aussies play the poms in cricket.

Caught the tube from a station named Temple, went two stops to Westminster then onto the Jubilee line and off again at Southwark. Caught the 63 bus without even waiting and headed home for a great home cooked meal from Mark.
