In the morning, I went with some classmates to the Tower of London. I will admit that my heart wasn't in it on this visit. I think my brain has been in overdrive from all I have been learning, thinking, and experiencing firsthand. Also, my feet. These dogs are barking!
Anyway, there is a ton of stuff to take in in that old creepy place, but after level after level of museum, it was all starting to mush together. I had my first solo Underground experience, did not get horribly lost, and met a friend who was coming to visit which ended up being a gigantic comedy of errors. Well, some of it wasn't so funny at the time. But, the good news is, I saw a lot of London -- and a lot of areas that weren't as spiffy and shiny as the places I'd been previously. Knowledge is power. Francis Bacon said that, and he was English, so he's probably seen those places too.
