Tourist Day-London Walk

Each week, Charlie and I aim to do one thing touristy so we won't be those people who, when the movers are packing their things to go back home, say, "I've been here for 2 years and made it to (fill in the blank)." Usually we do a London Walk, but when it's raining, we may do a museum or something indoors. Today was a London Walk and probably the most all encompassing walk we've taken so far. There were very few city highlights missed on this one and we were TIRED and HUNGRY when we concluded in Trafalgar Square. I think that on foot is the absolute best way to see London as today I finally found out how to connect the dots after a year of groundhogging it in the Tube. Things are much closer than one would think!

Catalina has joined the working world, so we are sorely missing one of our Musketeers. But, she was able to meet us for a quick lunch to catch up. It was so good to see her and we are so happy she has found the perfect thing here in London.
