I had that line from European Vacation stuck in my head the entire time I was in London. So, on my last day in London I raced to Westminster to catch Big Ben, Parliament and Westminster Abbey in the dwindling light of the day.
On my day off while in London I paid a visit to the Tower of London. We walked from the Underground along the Thames and then across the Tower Bridge, stopping by London Bridge to snap a photo. (Note: it doesn't appear to be in any danger of falling down.)
I stayed right across from Buckingham Palace so I felt compelled to watch a changing of the guard at least once during my stay. I decided to skip the big zoo and instead watched the smaller Horse Guard.
On our lunch break during the second day of DevStation we took a short trip away from the convention center toward Fleet Street and St. Paul's Cathedral. I dined with Dickens and Voltaire at Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese on delicious kidney.
My first full day in London was fairly uneventful. I spent most of the time here prepping for my presentation at Sony's DevStation 2007. I did find an hour or so to do a little sight seeing and passed by the London Eye.
While waiting in the airport during a layover on a flight bound for London I booked travel to Scotland. I then proceeded to jump on the plane without knowing whether or not my new ticket would be approved and issued before I arrived in England many hours later.
