London

Great city, very multi cultural.  We only got to spend about 8 hours seeing the sights, so I chose to subway/ walk around and take in the sights.  I hopped on the tube about 2 blocks from where I was staying for the night.  I got to my destination, went up the stairs, and there was Big Ben!  It was a great start to a tour.  They Eye of London were also fun; you can see for miles around.  After that, walking down the street where all of the government buildings are to Trafalgar Square was fascinating.

I was told that the 2^nd best place in the world to get Indian food is London.  So I did….. Butter Chicken with vegetables, rice and Naan.  Yum!

The next morning was a run in Kensington Gardens.  Not a long run, but just enough to keep my head on my shoulders.   As I was running, I noticed a large house with some constructions.  It then dawned on me where I was… Kensington Palace was the home last occupied by the late Princess Diana.  It is being renovated into an interactive museum, both inside and out.   I recognized the gates and entry way to the palace from the news.
