Today was shopping. Not many pictures on that! Had an italian lunch, then made our way to Westminister Tube Station to meet up with Richard III of London Walks (he is the third of six Richards who have worked for the company). It was a big group - I didn't count but must be close to 30. This was the slowest of the London Walks I have been on - a wise move given the numbers in our group and the traffic/crowds around. It worked well.
It was really a history lecture, illustrated by the relevant buildings around. Westminster Abbey first built by Edward the Confessor (the last of the Saxon (ie English) kings), and the first to be crowned was William the Conqueror, a Plantagenet (ie French).
More pictures from the tour:
Houses of Parliament - Lords side.
Guess this one.
Another picture - 3 in one - Westminster Abbey, Houses of Parliament, and I thought I knew the building on the right - ?St James something? Google isn't helping either.
Then back to Oxford Street for shopping, Chinatown again for dinner (better tonight) and Back to hotel.
Again, the weather has been good to us - no rain. But getting warm during the day.
