Final Day in London on 2 Dublin

We have now walked through two pairs of sneakers and we are only four days into our vacation.  Today we poked London in the eye.  We got on board the London Eye for an ariel view of why we got lost so often.  We looked out and immediately saw our problem, London was laid out originally by an architect with a sense of humor.  When nobody got the joke they burned it down and started all over again.

They had one more opportunity to make changes after WWII but by then everyone sort of got to enjoy getting lost and even more enjoyed acting like they knew where they were so they could give false directions to tourists.

The London Eye was a great ride and the views were spectacular.  We wanted an easy last day before having to go through the ordeal of the airport once again.  We finished up our stay at the Churchill War Rooms.  This is a fantastic location for history buffs as many of the rooms had been closed up and left as they were at the end of the war.  They were then reopened as a museum.  Those rooms that had been cleared were then set up with artifacts based on the many photographs taken in this hidden bunker.

Sorry this is going to have to be brief as it is getting late and we have a 5:30 wake up call scheduled.
