Walking from Buckingham Palace to the Financial District to the Tower Bridge to the Globe Theatre and back to Covent Garden – about 10 miles.   My feet STILL hurt.
Loo.  Lift.   Subway.  Underground.  Mind the gap.  Look Right (you bloody foreigner).

What I Brought Back:
Double-deck bus toy; China tea set

What I Remember:
