End of Day, London
Aug. 19th, 2014 11:17 amIt's the end of the day here in London, and I am tired. I've seen everything I wanted to see, so that worked out well. Tomorrow it's train and ferry to Dublin, Ireland. Two items of note:
1) You should definitely go on the tour at Buckingham Palace. It's not cheap and only offered during the Queen's summer vacation in Scotland, but damned is the Palace impressive! The place is huge, heavily decorated, and comes with it's own art gallery! That gallery alone is worth the trip.
2) When I bought my ticket, I ended up with 90 minutes to kill. I walked into the lobby of the Rubens at the Palace, an older (1912) hotel. I had a snort and a light lunch at The Cavalry Bar. It proved a great place to kill some time.
