London - 1st Time

5/89

This was our first trip outside the continental US.  My sister, Phyllis, took us!

London is great.  I've been there 2 or 3 times now, and it's one of the few places I'd still go back to.  You can't seem to see it all.  Some stuff, like the British Museum, and Westminster Abbey I've gone back  to see more than once!! (make sure you take the tour at the Abbey) 

This trip - Us and: Phyllis

Asking directions at the Wax Museum (...she's wax!)

  

Which one is wax?

Big Ben

(the name really refers to the chimes, not the clock itself!)

London Bridge was never falling down, at all.  That was all just hype!

Anyway, this is the "Tower Bridge" which is what Arizona thought they were buying when they bought London Bridge!  Sorry Arizona, no returns!

 

Stonehenge....cool!

The birds came right up to you

So did the squirrels

A beautiful day. 

Rare enough, in London.

Palace Guard

Street Guard

Enough with the castles, already.  If you ask me, they have too many castles!!

The famous

Rosetta Stone

This is what  "cracked " the hieroglyphics "code"

It's the same message written in Hieroglyphics, Greek, and Demotic
