Full sun - this is better than New Jersey...
No sleep - maybe 3 hours, if that - jet lag or I just need Millie...
Breakfast at EAT. The US really needs this kind of place, not the crap that's there. There would certainly be more healthy people.
It's warmer than Manchester. Liking this place is sneaking up on us after the getting lost previous day...
Things we did today:
1. British Museum - a couple of blocks from our hotel. This place is amazingly huge, packed with stuff and FREE! After viewing just a portion of stuff, we almost forget to look at the Rosetta Stone. Nice tall French man takes pity on small me and lets me in front. I am amazed at how precise the text is. When looking at the floor plan, we realize we just scratched the surface of this place.
2. Looked for the Britain/London tourist info centre; wander fruitlessly and have no idea where the heck it is. The info centre in Picadilly Station is tiny.
3. Went into the famous Liberty store. Though it is faux Tudor, the buidling is so beautiful. I just love it. Went to top floor to look at Liberty prints. High prices keep me from buying the tiniest trinkets. Londoners must be wealthy.
4. Find a nice small cafe off Carnaby Street and have a super egg mayo sandwich for lunch. Carnaby Street is sort of crowded.
5. Foolishly decide to walk Oxford Street. The book that labelled it the shopping capitol of Europe was not kidding. YIKES! So many people, and that's alot coming from someone who worked in NYC. Dave said it looked like worker ants. Well put.
