Walking Covent Garden!

20140802_130312
If you really want to experience a place…..get out there and WALK IT!

The sights, the smells, the sounds of London.

Hustling, Bustling, Jostling and hectic ---SO many people!  Loud & noisy, coming this way, going that way ---

St Paul’s Cathedral

One of the scenes I remember the most from Mary Poppins as I was growing up, is the sight of the Banks children being told about the old woman who sits on the steps of the cathedral, feeding the birds for “tuppence a bag”.  Oh, I knew those songs by heart and I still love them!

Yesterday I was ON those same steps, the steps  of St Pauls….reliving that childhood movie in my mind.

I Heart London!

20140802_010409
This is my first ever view of England below as we descended below the cloud cover, coming closer and closer to the beautiful country below ----

And then the countryside ended and big city began.  We touched down in Heathrow.  ENGLAND!

Galaxy-Gram! With Love from London!

We are here!

Luggage is here.

We had a bus tour of London today since we couldn't check into the hotel until 3 PM.
