We successfully made our way to London, despite some planning that we had worked out and the train schedules changing we spent a little extra time in Brussels and have done a whirlwind tour of London, depsite the rainy weather.
Highlight Reel: Big Ben
Crown Jewels
London Bridge
Tower Bridge
Tower Museum
St. Paul's Cathedral
National Gallery (lots of famous paintings)
Fish and Chips (Sarah only, Tara went for the chicken)
Bus Tour of London
The only downfall to London thus far is it is a twinge cold and rainy but the rain stopped this afternoon so I suppose we shouldn't complain. The computer doesn't have a card reader and I forgot the cord to hook up the camera to the computer so you will have to wait for more photos.
Tomorrow morning before the crack of dawn we are off to Paris. (Language number 2 we wish we knew some of, French, Dutch was the first that would have been helpful, but to be honest pretty much everyone has spoken English).

We shared your somewhat dreary day in Centerville with clouds and cool weather. The only things we were missing were: the bridges, the royals, the jewels, the cathedrals, the art museums, and the double-decker buses. Other than that, our day here was pretty much the same! Enjoy Paris - one of my favorite cities in EU (so far). Admittedly, I have a lot more exploring to do as well. Perhaps you could be my tour guide?
