Tuesday part 2

Maybe too many photos, wasn't able to complete blog in on go.  The two unnamed photos in the previous blog were Admiralty Arch, which marks the start of the Mall leading to the palace and the statue is Captain Cook.
 After our museum adventure we found Trafalgar and visited the National Portrait Gallery. The square was amazing with fountains, statues and a giant purple roster!

After a nice lunch out of the rain we strolled down Whitehall, past 10 Downing Street and onto Westminster Abby.

We met up with the Household Cavalry guarding the other side of the stables.

10 Downing Street looked a little busy! 

Westminster Abby

When strolled past the Houses of Parliament and onto the south bank where took in the views from the London Eye. 

We finished the day by catching up with Alex at Shoeditch, where he is working this week, and having dinner at one of his favorite Vietnamese restaurant. We are coming home for a rest.
