"Each has his heart's wishes shut in him like the leaves of a book, known to him by heart, and his friends can only read the cover." -Virginia Woolf

Sam and Anne STRIKE Back
A day full of wind and adventure awaited us as we caught the Tube to Westminster, bound for fun. Intending to find a Citi to solve my problems from Wed, we got off and immediately started looking. It wasn't too far, but tucked into a little alley out of the way. The Tube comes up right outside the Houses of Parliament so that became our first stop. It is GORGEOUS!!! The architectural detail is beyond words. We wanted to go in and watch a session of Parliament, but they weren't in session again till Monday. Continuing down the street we came across Westminster Abbey which only rivaled Parliament in size, but not in beauty -Ii had it's own! Sad to say, it was too expensive to go inside (costing a good $22) and the line ran around half of the Abbey. Still, the building itself was fantastic. We walked around the city simply taking in the beauty - and being blown to Timbuk Tu. Things are a lot closer when you walk and there are so many little jewels that you can find when you're just wandering.
