i'm in london now

and having eaten and drunk… drinked? i dunno… at any rate we had dinner and drinks on the thames river and that was cool… overlooking the tower bridge and the tower of london and a cool naval museum housed on a boat. i have pictures but i’ll have to post ‘em later.

anyways, as i was saying, having eaten and drunked =), i am now ready for bed at 1:19 am.

toodles!

==============================
update: why’d i wake up at 6am? i dunno, but here i am, awake, so i thought i’d post pics. (btw, all of these are links to larger images)

the “old wellington inn and restaurant” building is the oldest one on record in manchester, dating back to 1552. it was cute… small on the inside, but a nice large outdoor dining area. we stopped by for a few minutes on our walking tour of manchester, right before we took off for london

the tower of london is this old historical place which houses the crown jewels and was where ann boleyn was killed or something or other… it’s on our list of things to see, after which i’ll be able to talk a little bit more intelligently about it, but it was also our meeting point to find the keys to the ‘flat’ where we’re staying, just down the road… yup, we’re staying on tower road!

tower bridge… apparently this is the bridge that the US thought they were buying when they bought london bridge (y’know, the one at lake havasu!) hahahah… what suckers we are…
