8-18
           I am currently at the British Library near King's Cross looking at some of the worlds oldest literature. There's everything from Chaucer to Shakespeare to Austen to original music scores of Handel's "Messiah" to the music of Mozart to Beethovens Sonatas to Mendelssohn's Wedding March. There are also medieval maps from when the world was flat ;-) as well as the original (dun dun dun!).....Magna Carta!
           Now I am at the British museum looking at Pablo Picasso's prints, "The Vollard Suite."   I could go into my rant about my favorites (like I did in my journal), but I will skip that part since i do not think that my readers (likely only my family) will much care about that part.
          Anyhoots, after a long day of walkig and touring, we ended up going to:
              1) The British Library
              2) Regents Park (absolutel stunning and filled with roses upon roses as well as swans)
              3) Bakers Street (home of Sherlock Holmes)
              4) The British Museum
              5) Covent Gardens
              6) Somerset House
              7) Trafalgar Square
              8) Piccadilly Circus
              9) Green Park & St. James Park
              10) Buckingham Palace
              11) Hyde Park
              12) Kensington Gardens
              13) Kensington Palace
~Now I am sitting in Cafe Rouge for dinner with the girls :-) ~
