Katelyn and Gregory Haskins find their way through—and around—the world
Today we had a few more hours in London before leaving to meet Katelyn in Paris. In the morning, we hit a couple more tourist-y spots like St. Paul’s cathedral, the Millennium Bridge, and Picadilly Circus (in daylight this time). The weather really opened up yesterday and today, so blue skies all around. I dare say perhaps even a bit too warm.
For our second day in Londontown, we slept in a bit, which was pleasant. It’s amazing what an extra half hour of shut-eye and some toast can do. We started the morning with the British Museum—5 thousand years of history under one roof. The Rosetta Stone, of course, was magnificent, but the throngs of school groups drove us upstairs to the exhibits on Greece and Italy.
The overnight bus from Edinburgh to London turned out ok, albeit a bit too warm and snug for our liking. I guess we’ll have to get used to it since we’ve got a few more long bus rides ahead of us. We managed to get a spot of sleep, regardless, and weren’t terribly tired for the rest of the day.
