London

The train from Edinburgh to London is a long 4.5 hour ride. Had we been thinking we would have brought a lunch with us...oops. Needless to say we were starving by the time we go to our hotel. Nothing a good full peri peri chicken at Nandos couldn't cure.

London is my happy place. I love it here and I know it sounds weird but it feels like I am where I should be when I am here. If it were not for the crappy hotel (as Heather put it "3 stars my ass") it would feel like home away home. I know Heather won't agree, but I am a city person at heart. Probably a side effect of being raised in the least populated county of the least populated state.

Anyhow we tried unsuccessfully to find anyone from CSC at their hotel, but it was raining so we did not try too hard, but did have a drink in the lobby of the Royal National before leaving to go eat. I then took Heather on a quick tour to Piccadilly Circus, down through St. James's Park, over to Trafalgar Square and then down to Parliament and Big Ben. 

We only made one real stop, that was at Trafalgar Square where they had a small exhibition for the UEFA Champions League Final. I picked up a shirt and we took some picks. Overall it was a busy evening.
