Before spending time in Bath Leah and I spent a week in London. Overall we spent two weeks in the city in April. It was great to split that time up with breaks in Bath and Cambridge. London is great and all but smaller towns are nice, too.
This was Leah’s first trip to England so we hit a lot of the popular sights in London: British Museum, St. Paul’s Cathedral, the Westminster area, Tower of London, National Gallery, and more.
- The view south from Trafalgar Square. Outside the National Gallery.
- The inspection of the Queen’s Life Guard outside the Household Cavalry museum.
- The changing of the Queen’s Life Guard.
- The Cenotaph in Whitehall. Wikipedia has more context.
- The view south from St. Paul’s Cathedral.
- One of a few Egyptian rooms in the British Museum. We spent most of our time in the Greek and Roman areas.
- The view out of the Tower of London area. The juxtaposition of the old castle area with the much more modern city behind it was neat.
- In the foreground is the old chapel.
