A Little More London


St. Paul's Cathedral from the Millennium Bridge

Due to a subway delay, we missed the last tour up to the top of St. Paul's Cathedral by about 15 minutes.
We took a look around the inside and I snapped a few pictures of the outside. I am glad that I did, because when we tried to return the next morning, there was some sort of summit and the whole grounds were closed. Bummer.


We continued our walk over the Millennium Bridge and past Shakespeare's Globe Theater. I would love to return and see one of the plays that are performed there in the afternoons.



We finished off our trip by returning to a pub we had visited earlier in the week, The Bear and Staff. We ate at a lot of pubs so that we could have a couple of pints. I thought Chris was addicted to Fish and Chips after a while. As a side note, Georgia would like to know why chips are french fries and real potato chips are called crisps. Anyway, Chris just had to have the Toad in the Hole that he passed up on. It is sausages and mashed potatoes (aka Bangers and Mash) with veggies in a gigantic Yorkshire Pudding. Super yum and even better the second time around. We all know who the adventurous one is right?
