Proof we were There!

Big Ben
I had yet to see the iconic sights in London - Big Ben, House of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, the London Eye - as I knew with time this would be a tour I would take several times as others came to visit.  And so it goes, this past weekend we visited all the sites.  Even made it to Buckingham Palace, Harrod's, Picadilly Circus (a "circus" in London refers to what we would call a roundabout, or a road that goes in a circle and forms a sort of plaza), and topped it all off with delicious sushi (finally) in Soho.  After it was all done, about seven hours on foot.

All sights were of course impressive, but I should have probably done this tour before seeing the Duomo in Milan, because I'm not sure anything can beat that for architectural wonder.
