This morning we took a little spin with Kelaine & Richard to see Wembley Stadium where Wimbledon is being played right now. It was just up the hill from their house, a cute, ritzy little village with a rather major sporting event!
Then we met Tam for coffee at a little spot in Wimbledon near the underground station. Turns out his flat is just a few stops south. What a fun time we had visiting and catching up! Afterwards he walked us to the station & assisted in finding our train to our hotel in Central London.
After depositing our bags at our hotel we took off walking to Trafalgar Square, down Whitehall to No.10 Downing Street, to Westminster Abbey, past Big Ben, over the Westminster Bridge, along the South Bank of the river Thames, under the London Eye, and to the Globe Theatre where we hoped to purchase tickets and watch some Shakespeare. Which was sold out! So we had pizza, a salad, and a glass of wine before walked over the Milenium Bridge to St. Paul's Cathedral. What a magnificent sight! What an incredible city!
We called upon the tube to take us back to Russell Square and a chance to reflect and relax. So tired! So worth it!
