The internet here is really pretty bad and it's taking forever to load photos. In addition, I don't really want to bore you with the minutia of my day - but I really got all over the place: Westminster Abbey, Parliament, Tower of London (the tour by the Beefeaters is pretty hilarious!), and, of course and over and over again - the British Museum. If I get a better connection at some point I'll try to upload photos. But for now all you're getting is an apology.
But - hey, I'm a real Londoner now. I got stuck on the Underground for half an hour!
Strangest thing about London: 50% of joggers are wearing backpacks. That seems odd.
Thing I miss most about America: Ubiquitous public restrooms. Yeah, those would be nice.
Coolest thing so far: I got a kick out of the Winston Churchill War Museum. And the fact that there is a statue of Abraham Lincoln (!) in Parliament Square.
