Back in London
All in all, our stay in the UK and Ireland lasted nearly a month. I remember us arriving five days before the organized tour we signed up for began and then we stayed around for another week after it ended. Marc had to work in his company's office in Cambridge while I had another full week to vacation.
Taken after our tour ended. We were so happy at this time since we were on our own schedule. We could wake up when we felt like it and we could visit and explore any attraction anywhere for as long as we wanted.

With the beefeaters at the Tower of London. We had watched one travel show about London over and over again before we left and we sure were glad to see these men, these guards of the tower, in the flesh.

There were lots of ravens here.
