Reports from abroad (I asked Norris if we could repost his reports of his English travels; actually he never replied so I'm assuming it is okay...)

Today, I went to Windsor, Windsor Castle, Harrods, Campden Market, and walked around a lot. It was fun. At the changing of the guard at Windsor, there was a full marching band. They played the Indiana Jones theme and Darth Vader's march, among other John Williams selections.

Today at breakfast, I met a woman from San Diego. She is a teacher there. Anyway, we spent the day touring together as we had the same itenirary...and Emily refuses to spend any money to see things. We went to the tower of London, St. Paul's Cathedral, British Museum, Tate Modern, Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, and Westminster Abbey. We are now ending our day at the Internet Cafe. We did so much walking and stair climbing, not to mention the stairs at St. Paul's. We did go all the way to the top. We both really wanted to ride the London Eye, but it is closed for it's annual repairs. Too bad.
