Started off having a wander down Oxford St then went to St Paul's Cathedral. Truely incredible piece of architecture. Went up to the whispering chambers. Such an old building full of history. Outside while Tony took a photo Lou was stopped by police and checked on through the anti-terrorist law!!!!! The policewoman was ok about it. Lou must have looked suspicious standing alone with a bag! Then headed off to Tate Modern galley to see some Picasso's, Dali's and Warhol's amongst others. Finally went to the Globe Theatre. A great reproduction of Shakespeare' original theatre.

Tuesday saw us head off to The Tower Of London. The Crown Jewels were stunning (Anyone want to buy a used crown?). Ravens were cool too. Then we went for a cruise to Greenwich on the Thames with an interesting commentary. Greenwich is a nice place and the observatory was interesting. Did a bit of shopping in Oxford St. Had a look at all the instrument shops in Denmark St. One whole shop full of basses!

So far the weather has been cool but fine. There are even some daffodils poking their heads out.
