I know, I know, and it's usually by one of my fellow Yanks, right?

Those pictures bring back so many memories! Lloyd and Doug freak me out when they mention those zombies, but I'm telling you, I felt the presence of ghosts when I walked through the Bloody Tower!

They were probably running around looking for their heads!

London is so much fun though.

Didn't eat much on this particular trip.... since all the attractions wanted 10-15 pounds as an entrance fee we (myself and the other F/O...Capt slam clicked...(late LGW is a 3 man now)) stopped at the nearest pub to each location and drank a beer in honor of the site. Did the fish & chip thing in the newspaper at one of the stops and various muchies along the way.

Earlier in the month stuck around the area near the hotel and ate at the Indian joint around the corner one night and there's also a neat place with a bunch of outdoor seating down the road as well that's got good food and reasonably priced beer.... don't remember the name of it but go to the indian place, turn left for a few blocks, then right for a few blocks and where the street ends there it is.

I myself have traveled to London 3 times and each time was great. Not to be pain but the bridge is called "tower bridge" not "london bridge" which is in the united states believe it or not. however, great pictures, i visited each of these places you have taken photos of and they were all amazing.

London is a great city...the Tower of London tour is well worth the $$.

However, i do have a hard time finding good food in town. Figure getting out of town is probably the best bet for eating actual british cuisine.
