Yesterday I had a well earned day off work and spent the day in London.  The trains managed to behave themselves although the reserve booking of seats was all messed up which seems the case more often than not…

On arrival in London there was  a short detour to check out the Bank of England before moving on to the main reason for the visit, St Paul’s Cathedral. You might recall that I had planned to visit last October but those plans changed due to the protesters taking up residence.

It was well worth the wait, there was so much to see and I still haven’t seen it all.  There were a lot of steps to go up and down and a lot of walking.  My feet are still hurting today ;-)
