London

London is expensive.

And far less entertaining when you are sleep deprived.

And let’s not forget expensive. We used our personal money, so it didn’t cut into our missions budget, but still- SHOCKING.


Most of what we did- seeing Big Ben, Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, the London Eye & the River Thames, gazing at architecture, listening to accents, eavesdropping, taking pictures- that was all free.


Two passes on the Underground (subway), one museum, storage of our carry-ons for one day, and some carrots and pineapple from a grocery store cost roughly the equivalent of $100.

In all reality, $100 isn’t bad for a trip for 2 to London.

By the way, "Bag of Nails" is the name of a restaurant. Mmmm, Mmmm, good...
