Sunburnt in London and supper with Jason

June 4

Yes we had such great weather today that I got a bit sunburnt!

The day's itinerary included climbing the 311 steps of the Monument (London Fire memorial), walking the Millennium Bridge and Thames Footpath, the Tower of London and Tower Bridge.  By the way, London Bridge is now the plainest bridge crossing the Thames; the iconic bridge we all see is the Tower Bridge.

Jason took the train from Cambridge to Kings Cross station which is close to our hotel.  So we met him this evening for supper.  We had seen a little place North Sea Fish restaurant, so we went there for delicious but greasy battered and fried fish and “chips”.  It was good, but such a big piece of fish that I don't think I’ll go for fish again for a while.

Jason looks good.  He's extremely busy these days (on the phone dealing with a situation when we first met up)  as he’s the captain of the rowing team and their big race is next week.  Lots of political situations for him to deal with training to oversee.  We're all looking forward to seeing him race and spend time with him next week in Cambridge.

My I-pad doesn’t like Picasa, so my slideshow app doesn't work.  Check the bottom of my blog for new pictures
