The capital city of the UK is hosting the best of the world's athletes, so I thought I'd pay my respects by posting a few images from my travels to that great city.
Go, Brits! I hope you win silvers to the US's golds in every event .
Shown are two images from Parliament Square. The second pic is of that greatest of all civilian war leaders (IMO)- the irascible cigar-chomping Winston Churchill.
Thanks, Jason.
I agree about Winnie's face in shadow. Trouble is, there is VERY little detail for me to work with.
I don't remember the exchange rate all those years ago- except that throughout Europe and the British Isles the dollar was strong enough (in terms of the cost of goods and services) that I could stretch it pretty far. Otherwise my modest earnings in the US wouldn't have permitted my extensive travels.
