Dan and Samantha showed us an excellent time today in London. We started with the Portobello Road and Notting Hill markets, then went on to the British Library and saw a display of little things like the Magna Carta, a draft of a Monty Python script, a Mozart quartet manuscript, and lyrics for “Michelle” in Paul’s writing on the back of an envelope. We got rained on, rode in a black cab, and visited more than one pub, which all felt very British! We viewed some of the big sightseeing highlights and will do more of that tomorrow. We ended the day with fantastic fish and chips and some pints in their local pub. Jolly good day!
1. So much history everywhere here! Lots of these little plaques referencing residents like Orwell, Kipling, etc.
