The longest walk

Today started a bit later than we anticipated because neither of us could be bothered to drag ourselves out of a warm bed and into the cold air. Brrrr. Still, we managed. And in the daylight hours available to us, we:

- Walk to tube station where it is lightly snowing
- Major excitement over that
- Ride the tube to Westminster
- Big Ben, Parliament Buildings, Westminster Abbey
- Walk along the Thames towards The Tate Modern Museum
- Westminster Bridge
- Embankment
- Waterloo Bridge
- Blackfriars Bridge
- Tate Modern Museum, where we see all four exhibitions (Jeff Wall Photographer, Henri Rousseau: Jungles in Paris, Nude/Action/Body including Matisse, Picasso and Warhol, and History/Memory/Society, including Picasso and Boccioni)
- Lunch at Tate Cafe on top floor of museum with window views over Thames and London
- Millennium Bridge
- Southwark Bridge
- London Bridge
- Tower Bridge
- We've now walked the entire length of the Thames Path
- It's 5:30 and we are exhausted
- Soho will have to wait
- Tube to hotel
- Dinner in room

Day two of returning to hotel and having to soak feet in warm water. We've covered a lot of ground and we're feeling every bit of it. But having a fantastic time!
