Single guy with no smile
It's now a little past 7:30 I'm almost done in; I've been on the go since 6:00 am.

The bus tour left @ 8 this morning. We went to Westminster Abbey, The Household Calvary Museum, the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar. Square and Picadilly Circus. We also saw the MI5 & MI6 buildings. You will see I tried to bring a fine young soldier home for you single girls but I couldn't even get him to smile.

This afternoon I took another tour, I met a couple ladies and a couple from around Cambridge Ontario and a couple from California who were also on the tour. The tour went to St Paul's Cathedral, what a work of art, I took pictures but I know there is no way I could capture the beauty of this magnificent building. And then we went to the Tower of London, I never realized it's more than just one tower, of course I also saw the Crown Jewels; sorry I couldn't bring any back and no pictures were allowed. I then took a boatride down the Thames to Westminster bridge, that's near Big Ben and walked about 10-15 minutes back to
