London continued

So after getting lost and not seeing what we set out to see we decided to take the hop on hop off tour bus, which we could get tickets for at the hotel. We also got tickets for the London eye and the Dungeon's tour. The bus stopped right outside our which was great considering our track record. So off we go on our double decker tour bus with the open top, which was great in the rain. Actually it wasn't to bad, they supply rain ponchos.
 We passed St. Paul's Cathedral, Trafalgar Square and some very narrow side streets. We got off at the tower of London, and we hoped  on a river cruise on the river Thames, it was great even though it was still raining. We got off at the London Eye. It was amazing, you could see for mile and mile and well you get he picture.  Fabulous if you ever get the opportunity take it. After that it was a short jaunt over to the dungeon tour which took us thru the time of the plague, Sweeny Todd, Jack the Ripper, just to name a few, lots of dark musty tunnels at one point I was thrown in a cell and yelled at while they told about mid evil type tortures. At the end we were all found guilty of treason and sentenced to hang. We got strapped in these seats and the floor dropped out, then we lifted back up and dropped again. Of course like Disney they had cameras taking picture. Of course we bought them and I can honestly say I don't think I've ever taken a worse picture, and those of you who know me know I can take some pretty awful pictures. After we went across  the bridge to check out
Westminster Abbey, line up was huge so we just took pictures from outside.  We then hopped back on the bus and checked out Downing Street, Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, and the list goes on. All from the bud, by this time it was time to go home so we headed back to our pub for another round of warm beer and fish and chips. We tried to use our tablets to share our adventure but again sitting  in the crowded lobby with crappy wifi turned out to be useless. So called it a day.  I fell into a wonderful sleep that no amount of pub noise could bother.  At about 12:30 I woke up checked my watch jumped out of bed and yelled at Nancy to get up we were going to be late for our train, she calmly said go back to bed its the middle of the night, apparently I was worried about missing our  train the next day.  She then grumbled about the pub noise keeping her up, guess it was her turn.  And now its time to say good night. Here are some pictures from our day
