This morning we took the Tube into the city center and got our first look at London…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After a couple of quick phone calls…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We stopped in to the Churchill War Rooms. This is where much of World War II was directed. Far under ground…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then we made a quick side trip to Victoria Station to grab some lunch…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then off to Westminster Abbey. No pictures allowed inside, but it was quite cool. Extremely old stuff. Saw some painting on walls that were over 600 years old!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We stopped for a quick picture with the tower that holds Big Ben…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Yes, it is under all that scaffolding. We then went for a boat tour down the Thames, from Westminster to Greenwich…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We then went to a local burger joint in Greenwich (no, not McDonald’s this time)…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After dinner we walked UNDER the Thames through a tunnel…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We then rode the trains back to our VRBO, extremely tired. I think we are still dealing with a bit of jet lag. Hopefully tomorrow we will be fully adjusted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
