Sorry for the paucity of photos, but the intimidating number of cops, CCTV, and security check points made me wary about where I was pointing my camera.

Leading into Trafalgar Square:

Nice pictures. Getting back from Manhattan last week, from London and Paris last September and having anytime access to SF, I'd have to say, if I did move away from my beloved East Bay, it would be to London. Your pictures make me want to go back.

We didn't take the subway and London seems quite a chore to get around on foot, even in its inner "core" area, but we spent all afternoon in the Imperial War Museum, in addition to all morning and all evening on a coach, so that would've been a factor.

I found The Underground to be a snap actually. On foot though, yeah, certainly not as easy as Manhattan.

Also London and New York seem to be both famous for having power-walking kamikaze pedestrians.

Yeah they do. Fortunately for me, my size gets me noticed and I haven't been sunk yet.
