London






First Stop Abbey Road and we weren't the only ones, as the Beatles buff that I am, it was great to get there, and we went into Abbey Rd Studios even though they are still a functioning recording studio. Then we went onto Baker Street (Sherlock Holmes and Madam Tusseau's) it is also the Beatles Store, so I picked up a few items. Then off to Buckingham Palace, and Liz was in, but we couldn't get to have a cup of Tea, but it was nice to see it, we took a shot or two, one with Sharon in it looking at the horse and carriage leaving the grounds.
Tower of London and the Tower bridge were fascinating, we had the best Yeoman do our guided tour, a very funny Welshman, the Crown Jewels were mind boggling. and the gruesomeness of went on there was an eye opener. Lots of history though.
Went to Harrods, and the Egyptian Staircase was amazing, not to mention how awesome the whole store is.
Just for Crag & Annette, your old home, and a picture of Lorinda and Roderick who we stayed with in London, just great people.
