Nobody ever said to expect sunny weather in London. It's still a little bit cold, but definitely springtime! The fruit trees and magnolia trees are beginning to bloom. The daffodils are well out and yes, we've had loads of sunshine! Over the weekend, I enjoyed a boat tour up the River Thames along with every offering of city tours from the open-top double-decker bus all over London.

There is so much to do here as a tourist. Fantastic theatre!- I've taken in a couple of shows- Blood Brothers and Sunset Boulevard. I've taken full advantage of free admission to a couple of great museums. The British Museum has a breathtaking collection. It's one thing to know that you are going to see the sculptures from the Parthenon. It's another thing entirely to stand before them! Amazing!

Oh, London sounds so fun. And I've only read about the lake district. I think it is amazing when you see something from the Parthenon, something that old.
