Enjoying London

The good news is I am enjoying London.  The bad news is I am still pretty sick.  I went to a walk in clinic again today and got some more antibiotics which I hope will do the trick. 

I went to Windsor, Stonehenge and Oxford yesterday on a day tour.  I had already been to Windsor castle to I just walked around, shopped and ate some lunch.  Next we went to Stonehenge which was well, ... quite boring.  I am not exactly sure what I was expecting but if it is on your must see list - I recommend taking it off.  Finally we stopped in Oxford and did a walking tour.  Beautiful city with a very rich history - I recommend stopping here if you can.  It was a long day and I am not completely sure it was worth.  You live and you learn I guess. 

Today I slept in and then went on the hop on hop off bus tour of London.  I got off in Picadilly Circus for lunch and shopping.  It was a gorgeous day and just what I needed to recharge the old batteries.  I saw the doctor this evening at a clinic in Victoria Station and then went for dinner at a  place called Giraffe.  Awesome food, great prices and a fun ambience.  I highly recommend it - I have seen a few in the city. 

Tomorrow is focused on Buckingham Palace and the Royal Mews.  I am hoping it is not a disappointment like Stonehenge.

  1. Ah I remember stone henge. It was a check mark on a list but not much more. Just a bunch of rocks. :-) Hope the meds, doctor visits and a little down time get you better. Hugs!
