Got up at 5:30. Ran around Kensington Park. BIG park. Knee hurts, hip hurts. Took us 2 hours to get back to our hotel. Need beer. Where's the beer? Did laundry. Only took 9 GBP to wash our clothes. That's $18.00! I could've have bought new clothes at Ross. London is very expensive. JW bitched about how everything in England is twice as expensive all the time, all day and all night. I feel I need to go prostitute to pay for trip.
Walked to Buckingham Palace. Got lost only 5 times. The streets are going the wrong way. Where are we? And the funny part is that people would stop us and ask us for directions. Saw the Palace. Nah! No big deal. But what a zoo, there must be at least 5,000 people milling around. We asked for the Queen but was told that she is otherwise occupied.
Walked to Nottinghill. Very hip and trendy place. Stopped at another pub. Had our Guinness quotas for the day and walked back to our hotel.
Met up with Andrea and Derek, walked to restaurant. Stupid me, not knowing that everyone walked to everywhere, had heels on. Looks great but hurts like hell after 3 miles of walking. I should have some great looking legs after that, or at least lost a few pounds.
