Thursday, Oct. 9th

Yesterday, Wednesday, we moved hotels again and this one is located in the theater district.  It's about a 4 block walk to the subway station (it's call the Tube).  This is our main means of travel.  We've gotten pretty good at it.  The last 2 times we have taken it there has been a problem and we had to take a taxi one time to get back to our hotel and then last night it was just slow.

After moving hotels we went across the river to see Shakespeare's Globe Theatre.  It's not real large but very interesting to learn the inside information on it.  We also had lunch at our new favorite restaurant - Wagamama's.  After our tour of the Globe we rode the Tube to The Hard Rock Cafe.  Of course we had to get some of their London Hard Rock items.  They were having a private concert in the main restaurant, so everyone (who was nobody) had to eat in the bar.  45 minutes of wait time we were sat by the bar and had to talk really loud to carry on a conversation.  We still had fun.

On Thursday we took a bus tour of Windsor Castle, the Roman Baths in Bath, and Stonehenge.  I bet you can guess which picture is which!!  It was a beautiful day and a great trip.  Not enough time at Windsor.  We all agreed that we could use a full day there.  How embarrassing we were late getting back to the bus and were the last to board.  You better believe we were almost the first to board at the next stop.  Stonehenge was no surprise.  It isn't real big, but what really surprised us it that it is in the Y of 2 highways.  One runs right on the edge of the area fenced off for Stonehenge.  Gwen, they keep the grass cut low by SHEEP!  They had a few running free in the Stonehenge area and a flock just on the other side of the fence.
