Last Day of our London Pass

It felt a bit like Chevy Chase's European Vacation today, we covered quite a bit of ground and took in several of the big sights that were still on our list.  First stop was the Tower of London:

The Queen's Crown and all the fancy jewels are kept here but they don't allow photos.  Pretty over the top items in there!



 Westminster Abbey where the Royal weddings, baptisms and coronations take place.

After that it was time to go to  Harrod's Department store, the high end designer  merchandise they sell was still selling despite the high prices, it was a very interesting place to see.







 We stopped for a bottle of Harrod's own lager at the little bistro they have overlooking a deli section. Check out the chandeliers...


   

And that was another full day being a tourist in London, now we have three days of hopefully getting in to see some tennis at Wimbledon!
