Today I'm feeling some better - but still not great - I went down for breakfast and came back to the room. Katherine was supposed to meet us between 9 and 9:30 but she slept late - so she called to let us know she'd be late. After she got her and gave us the gifts we need to take back to Houston, we headed out and went to the Tate Modern museum ... after seeing art by lots of people no one ever heard of - and a bit from people like Matisse, Monet, Dali, Warhohl and Rothko - we headed a few doors down - grabbing a English hotdog along the way - to Shakespeare's Globe Theatre - which is supposed to be the best guess as to what the theatre would have looked like in the day ...

Then we crossed the Millenium Bridge and went into St. Pauls Cathedral. From there, we ate dinner at an english pub before saying goodnite to Katherine. We went on to the theatre district and did a little shopping before catching Caberet. I always forget how powerful the story is and think it should be required watching for everyone every 10 years or so ... At least often enough to NEVER FOREGET. A footnote ... The phrase Never Forget Never Again has long been spoken to remind us to never forget the atrocities of the Holocaust. Now, however, it seems the phrase has become the call to not forget 911. While I agree, we should never forget 911 either ... I think we forget the Holocaust in the process.
Our travel pages - the pictures and the tales that go with them.
