Took a break today and went for a joggy jog round one of my fav areas here in London town. It's a 4 mile run from my door to Borough Market (which ended up being closed today because it's a bank holiday.......so......yeah, I'll be going back) and on the way you pass St. Paul's Cathedral. I actually went to a service around Christmas time and they ask at the beginning of the service if anyone wants to sit with the choir in the front. Needless to say, I jumped at that opportunity. I didn't take any photos whilst in the pew....you know....gotta keep it classy for Jesus. It was pretty incredible I must say. St. Paul's is breathtaking inside it really is.
Directly across from it, you have the Millennium Bridge. As you cross it you see the Tate Modern Art Museum, to the left you have Shakespeare's Globe Theater and around the river Thames....you have the oldest dungeon in London and Borough Market. I actually walked down to the Southbank today as well which is a pretty neat lil area. They were having a Spanish Food festival (that I did not take pictures of because it was so crowded I got a bit anxious and wanted to body slam my way through everyone).
Learned some really interesting history about good ol' London today. I shan't bore you with it all now, but here are some pictorals of my travels today. Oh, and I am going to SPAIN (Barcelona) to be exact next week (insert big ass smile) as a celebration for the end of this CRAY term.
Till then, enjoy and drink up.
