2nd Day in London

Hello All,

Today was a good day. Got up around 9:00 after getting a good nights sleep. Got on London time. Headed to the Internet Cafe because I finally found the job I have been looking for for years. Chief of Operations at Denver Health System. That would be awsome. Anyway, had to get here before we did anything cause I needed to write a coverletter and update my resume. Kelly is going to take care of all the other things and get it in the mail in the next day or so.

Took the tube to Wimbledon, just to look around. The line to get in if you did not have a ticket was no joking about a mile long. We walked around the entire complex trying just to get a peek in, but the All England Lawn and Tennis Club has done a great job of blocking every possible vantage point from outside.

Went back to town, and got off the tube at Big Ben. Talked everyone into a walk along The River Thames towards the tower. Got to see the Big Ben, webminster Abbey, Winston Churchill, The Millenium Eye, Some funny street performers, along with Shakesphere's Globe, London Bridge, Tower Bridge, and St. Paul's Cathedral. Everyone was glad that we got to see so much. I wish now last time I was here I was not so dependent on the TUbe. You see so much more by just walking around. Then, when you want to get back find the tube. Much more fun.

Feet Travel Tip #2: Wear good walking shoes. Half of my group decided to wear sandals, and they were all not happy they did.

Getting cleaned up now, plan on getting a bite to eat and of course pubs tonight.


Things to remember from last night:

1) Walked past "Probably the Best Gentlemen's Club in the World" --I just liked the Advertising Slogan
2) The Retainer

Talk to you tomorrow.
