Picts...

...not the ones in Scotland. I have now posted a bunch of pictures from my month in London that I hope give you a pretty good look at what it was like there. Like I said in my last post, we went everywhere, and I have way too many pictures to post them all so I tried to pick the best and most representative ones. I tried to put a couple up with me in them. We had a blast walking around everywhere. I hope you enjoy the slide show. Sorry it's so long. You'll probably have to look through a couple of pages to see them all. The are posted in the opposite order in which they were taken but it should all be cool. Enjoy!!

Home Sweet Home!! while we were in London atleast.  

The underground station next to our hotel.  

"Mind the Gap please between the tube and the platform, Mind the Gap!" 

Westminster Palace from across the Thames. We actually got to go watch the House of Commons and the House of Lords a couple of times. 

I love British road signs. My favorite sign in the tube is "Mind the Gap" They just have a great way with words. 

Self-explainatory 

Look at me!! I'm one of the Beatle's now! 

Shakespear's Globe Theatre on the south bank of the Thames.

The gorgeous English countryside. Still green in the middle of winter. 

"This is my country the land that begat me. These windy spaces are surely my own, and those who toil here, in the sweat of their faces are flesh of my flesh and bone of my bone." One of the many qoutes and other sayings stuck along the very modern walls of the new Scottish Parliament building. 

Edinburgh Castle, looking up at it from Princes Garden and the bottom of the hill.  

The Royal Mile is the main street down the center of the old town of Edinburgh, Scotland. It runs between the Castle and Holyrood Palace.  

Me and our guide, royal warden, at the Tower of London. 

One of the houses of the Nobility off of Green Park near Buckingham Palace. 

The gate at Trinity College Cambridge. 

Kings College Chapel at Cambridge University. It is gorgeous inside. 

The Roseta Stone in the British Museum which was down the street, less than a block away, from our hotel. 

George Orwell's house near Portobello Road.  

We went to the market here. It had to have been 2 miles long. It was great. 

Westminster Abby. We went to a service here one Sunday and we got to sit in the choir. It was really nice and the singing was beautiful. 

Number 10 and Number 11 Downing Street 

This is one of Her Majesty's guards at Windsor castle! 

This is the Chapel at Eton College, which is a very elite private high school across the river from Windsor.  

The private appartments at Windsor.  

The old Norman tower at Windsor Castle. Gorgeous!! I want to live there.
