Last night, after dinner, we took a walk along the Embankment. Olympic fever has definitely taken over London. I'll post pictures. The sites and sounds were truly magical. The Thames, the London Eye, Big Ben and Westminster Abbey were all lit up. It was a perfect evening for a stroll. We bought our Oyster Cards and we are learning how to use the Underground. No problems there. After a few near misses, I have learned to always look right when crossing the street. Now before stepping off the curb I remind myself to look right. This works great when it is not a one way street! Today it is off to The British Museum!
