It’s been fun, but unfortunately we have to return to the tropics half way round the world (literally).

Started out by climbing The Monument to the Great Fire of London in 1666, it’s only 311 stairs to the top with great views.

Are we there yet??

We did it!!

Never ending stairs

Yay breakfast, had the “Traditional British Breakfast”… Poached Eggs, bacon, sausage, and the infamous Black Pudding. Tried it, it’s actually not too bad… I just think my mind kept getting in the way of really enjoying it.

Yummy

Next stop, get on the Tube, Mind the Gap, and go to the British Museum. Good times to be had by all!

Ze Grand Entrance

I always feel like.. somebody’s watching me… (besides the incessant CCTV here)

Just chilling in front of the Nereid Monument

Rapa Nui (Easter Island) Statue

Next stop, West London. Completely NERDING OUT on the TARDIS in London!!!!!!!!

Things aren’t even Wibbly Wobbly yet

Time for a last minute show in Piccadilly Circus? Nope, just billboards and TGI Fridays (WTF??)

Ugly London

I like this ale, but I could be biased by the name…

Heading back toward our place, found a boat that’s a bar. Stopped for some cider at the Tattershall Castle Ship. (it stays docked) One pint, the home before the night-club begins. The red in the pic is from the heating lamps above, because it was COLD. brrrr

Beam me up Socttie

Ok, as Bear says.. “Final Final”.. Stopped by The Black Friar Pub before our temporary home.

Jagermeister is so much tastier in Europe!

Time to go home, in the tunnel between the pub and the train

On the tube home, and goofing off. Yes, we’re home fine, or else I wouldn’t be posting. 🙂

Tomorrow is heading home, a long day of flying. Yay. Stay tuned for the next installments. “Mike’s 40th birthday bash in Oklahoma”, then “New Zealand hiking/camping”
