Christopher Robin went down with Alice

London!  The Big Bus and a cruise to Grenwich took up our first afternoon and despite being caught in a heavy storm we enjoyed seeing London from the water.  The views of Tower Bridge and the Tower were wonderful.

Next morning just like Christopher Robin and Alice we went to see the changing of the guard (along with thousands of others). Our touristing was followed by our special night at the theatre.  All dressed '(still InThe rain) we had dinner in a Belgian restaurant watching France defeat Nigeria along with some noisy and very happy locals.  Then off to the musical "Once" - a very different musical with strong performances from the singers who were also very good musicians.  A very different experience because at Interval many of the audience went on stage to get food and drinks and we had ice-cream ordered from our seats. A beautiful old theatre and a lovely experience.  We rose early to get inline for West Minister Abbey which opened at 9.30 and we really loved this beautiful church and all it's varied history and the wonderful continuity so evident in every corner. 

Harrods and Fortnun and Mason provided elegant lunches and afternoon teas whilst we viewed the elegant and incredibly expensive clothes.

Tomorrow our last stop- Paris!
