London Sightseeing: Days Two and Three

On Day 2 in London, we aimed for three of the biggies: British Museum, St. Paul's Cathedral, and the Tower of London. What we learned is that we could have been in London for a week and still not seen all three of them thoroughly. (p.s. I am not posting all of the great photos Freeman took of the cool artifacts, etc. but you can trust that he saw some pretty cool stuff).

Hamilton napped while Freeman toured the London Tower, but woke up just in time for a photo op before heading back to the Lams.

For Day Three, we opted to stay in the Lams' neighborhood, since we were heading up to Turvey that afternoon (more on that soon). We took a little walk through Hampstead Heath and ended up at a cafe for lunch with Janice.

We got off of the bus at Kenwood House, which is a beautiful old stately home built in the early 17th century. We arrived too early to take a look inside, but really enjoyed the grounds.
We continued walking through the Heath (asking for directions several times, since we kept getting turned around).
It was all very picturesque.

By the time we got to Golder's Green Park Cafe, Hamilton was ready for a snooze. We enjoyed a nice lunch and then...

...we were off. Here we are on our way to Turvey on the First Capital Connect line.
