Since I'm a knob, I almost didn't arrive in London yesterday. British Airways overbooks (like Southwest) and luckily I received the last seat. I'm a knob because I've experienced this overbooked issue before with Southwest. For example, this past Christmas. But I got on the cramped, stuffy plane and arrived safely.
From the airport I took the "tube" (subway) and ate one of the most delicious chicken pies at the train station, where I people watched for bit.
Didn't do much for the remainder of the day. Got to Yaschica's and slept for a few hours. Later, Yaschica, her husband and I went to a pub for a beer and then to an Indian restaurant for dinner. It was very good.
One word I temporarily need to remove from vocabulary: restroom. After I asked the bartender where the restroom is, he looked confused and in good humor said, "This is a restroom, you can rest in here," as he pointed to the pub chairs. We both laughed. I said, "OK, where's the toilet?"

Go to the tower of London. They also have the crown Jewels there. There is a lot of interesting history there and the guides are really nice! You're not missing the crappy weather here! I bet you it's warmer there than it is here!
