Well with Emily back in Australia and me heading back there some, we thought it would be a good chance to spend some time looking around London and spending some time together.

We hit our English Heritage sites and headed for Jewel Tower and Chapter House.  Jewel Tower is where the King held his worldly possessions back in the day.  We also finally got over to the Imperial War Museum which was spectacular and Nick got to see all the big man toys.  It was good to piece together some of the things we have seen around Europe about war to the English side.

Then we went down to Greenwich to see Eltham Palace which is a 1930's Art-deco mansion, which was very interesting.  We went and saw the Blood Brothers musical in West End which was unexpected brilliant.  Up there with the best.  A very powerful show. We also finally got down to our corner breaky cafe for an English Big Breakfast. I don't know why it took us so long to get there.

We also finally made it out to Windsor Castle and visited the Queenie's weekend house.  It was a really amazing day and Mary's Doll House was just breathtaking. Got a pic off the net as no pics allowed in there.  We were really impressed with the church as well which was surprising considering how many churches we have seen.

A lovely week all in all and nice to spend some time together.
