London, Day 3

Sunday was my last full day in London. It was also the day that I had the hardest time getting out of bed in the morning. I think I finally rolled out of bed between 10:30 and 11. We got out the door in time for lunch. We ate at a pretty American place, Byron's, which was right by the tube stop.

Allison and I took the tube to the Imperial War Museum, which ended up being really cool. We spent around 2 hours browsing the museum's 5 floors, which included exhibits for heroes, the Holocaust, naval warfare, and interactive exhibits for trench and Blitz warfare. It was all very interesting.

The next stop of the day was the Museum of Natural History. We got there half hour before closing time, so we only had time to check out one exhibit. The exhibit, which cost 8 pounds to see, was entitled Sexual Nature, which looked at the rules of attraction-and sex-for humans and animals. Again, some pretty interesting stuff. Also, some though provoking stuff, by asking questions as to what you find attractive in a mate.

That night we went on the London Eye, which is a huge Ferris Wheel structure, where you get in a glass bubble, and are taken on a half hour loop, providing views high above the city of London.

After the London Eye, Allison and I walked along the river, and had dinner at a place called The Wharf. Our River Thames walk also lead us past Shakespeare's Globe Theater (a replica, as the original burned down), The Millennium Bridge, The London Bridge, The HMS Belfast, The Tower of London, and the Tower Bridge.
