Adventure Chronicles™

02.19.01 - Around London
London, UK

Jet lag appears to be minimal. We slept until noon, which didn't hurt. We decided it was time to leave the house, so we hopped on the Underground and headed for the Tate Modern art gallery. Interesting collection. Most of the art was very abstract, and although not our normal taste, we appreciated the creativity that obviously goes into it. But, I (Lisa) had to scoff at the green florescent light hung on one wall. That was it, just a green florescent tube. I could have done that.

After the gallery, we headed for the Tower of London and the famous Tower bridge. We skipped the tour, since we've already been, but seeing it cemented that we were back in London. The Tower of London used to be home to the British family and still holds the Crown Jewels. Its history is full of war, the struggle for power and wealth, murder, adultery and betrayal. Kind of like Melrose Place in steel armor and (sometimes faulty) chastity belts.
