Stairs but NO Towers

Today we were going to relax, put our feet and paws up and go on a hop on and off and hop on and hop off and hop on...you get the drift, tour. This involved walking to Victoria Station, finding the big open bus top, double decker, bus and then driving past Margaret Thatcher's house (she was in but didn't ask us for tea), then past Mary Poppins house (no sign of lady flying about with an umbrella), and then past J.K. Rowlings House (who also did not invite us in for tea).

Carried on with many detours to find Westminster Abbey closed for some Navy funeral thingy, so we carried on to St. Paul's Cathedral (our first hop off). Saw no lady feeding the birds or singing about feed the birds, tuppence a bag or otherwise. Then Mommy said, "Hey I know, lets climb to the tippy tippy top top of the cathedral and I said (Yes, first the Calgary Tower now another 578 or so steps up the Cathedral). Anyway we climbed and climbed and climbed and climbed and finally we reached the first viewing area. Then we climbed some more for the tippy top where we got super fantastic pictures. Then we climbed down and down and down and down till we reached the cript. That's where we had lunch, surrounded by a bunch of famous dead folks (who didn't want to share my sandwich).

After the cathedral it was the walk across the Millenium Bridge (first scene of last Harry Potter movie). It was awesome and then we took a weird movie of people approaching us from like 3 directions with St. Paul's in the background.

Hmm..lets see, back across bridge after finding that silly moving statue didn't move, and went to the Churchill Experience and went and pretended we were in a bomb shelter being bombed except it didn't rattle or shake. Then we walked through a sort of bombed out area except it was smoky and the photos didn't work.
Back on the bus where we saw where Daniel Radcliffe went to school at some point, maybe when he wasn't filming Harry Potter.

Hmm...oh yeah, message to Yuko. We seem to have acquired one medium size, "Mind the Gap" T-shirt.

Now we are back in our room eating Cadbury chocolate button pudding with chocolate buttons, strawberry tarts with custard, and a 1/2 a banana.

Tomorrow it's off on day 3 of my Elephant Safari of London, oh and to visit Kensington Palace. Maybe we'll see Diana's ghost there, wouldn't that be super cool?

The end...Baxter the Nefarious (whatever that means)
