What a day! With the expert navigational skills of Prof. Gerald Parkhouse and Prof. Alison Wolfe we navigated Trafalgar Square and Parlaiment Street. Gigantic monuments honor the achievements of the 19th century British Empire and the heroes from both world wars. They start at Trafalgar Square and run down Parlaiment St., past Big Ben. We got a glimpse down Downing St, where former prime minister Tony Blare and Prime Minister Gordon Brown live. And just look at all that exquisit architecture! We've been finding it down every street. Shades of a once wealthy and powerful empire. In comparison, it makes New York look pretty cheap.
