Free day in London
Didn’t do much. Took a long nap and then went to the British Museum, the oldest museum in the world. It was just a fifteen minute walk from our hotel. Problem is, the place was closing ten minutes after we got there. So we ran through the mummy exhibit and then wandered the streets. Better than mummies wandering the streets, but not as interesting.
It’s the umbrella store! More umbrellas than you can possibly imagine!!
We ate at the “Duck and Dog,” a 300 year old pub. False advertising alert: they do not serve duck OR dog. But Vicki finally got a big British hamburger.

Enjoy the culture…I hate culture myself–I’ve failed (yes, miserably) at every attempt to be so (cultured).
However, London does have a famous dungeon! And, the Sex Pistols came from there (why mention the Beatles–they had to come to America to be SUPERSTARS). I believe Mel Gibson was disemboweled there? Yessss!!!
