The view. This is the view from Jay and Tina's apartment. They graciously allowed us to stay with them for a few days.

Westminster Abbey. Another beautiful building in London.

Big Ben and Parliment. Can't go to London without seeing these two beautiful buildings.

The Eye of London. A giant ferris wheel on the Thames River. It takes a half hour for it to make a full rotation. Some say it's an eyesore. I like it, however, not enough to take a ride.

The Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace in London. I expected it to be regal and dignified. They played a medley of Neil Diamond songs, including Sweet Caroline. They could have at least played some Elton John.

These sculptures are on the exterior of Notre Dame. The angel to the left of the guy holding his own head seems to be saying, "Excuse me. But please put that back where it belongs."
