Wherein Bob says "Ix-nay on the ube-Tay"


We walked everywhere today, except for a taxi ride home from Harrod's in one of those cool black taxis they have here.

Started out our very full day with a full English breakfast (egg, beans, bacon, sausage, tomato and toast). On our way to the National Gallery, we stopped to buy half-price show tickets for We Will Rock You, the show about Queen. We spent a full half-day at the National Gallery, which was fabulous. Afterwards, we went to a violin/piano concert at St. Martins-in-the-Field Church (pictured here), and then ate lunch downstairs at the Cafe in the Crypt. The tables are actually set up on gravestone markers that are part of the original crypt. Sounds creepy, but it's not, really.

Next up, Picadilly Circus and then a walk to Buckingham Palace, where we watched the "shifting of the guard", as JoDee called it (they didn't change as much as they shifted). A visit to Harrod's, and we were pretty much wiped out for the afternoon. After a rest at the B&B, we went to the show, which was really cool.

Tomorrow, Bob wants to take a taxi everywhere we go.
