We ran into a bit of wet weather our first day, but didn't really get rained on. It was cold for May, though.

Trip Photos #1
I won't be posting many "people" photos here; I may post them on the other blog or just put the link there with password to the photobucket where I posted all the pics if anyone is interested.
Westminster Abbey
Near Buckingham Palace
The Thames from the London Eye
Thames and Houses of Parliament from the London Eye
Oxford
Room in the Divinity School where the Harry Potter infirmary scenes and the practicing for the dance scenes were filmed.
Some of the more fanatical Potter fans in our group re-enacted some scenes from the movie where they took place, such as the dance rehearsal above, or the scene where Mad-eye Moody turned Malfoy into a ferret.
Oh, those college kids.
House where Shakespeare was born in Stratford
This is the restored Roman Bath, located of course, in Bath. Photo below is also from Bath.
St. Paul's Cathedral
View from St. Paul's, for those willing to climb the 400+ stairs to get up there.
Our second show, We Will Rock You, which we saw on the Friday night. It was okay, but I wouldn't really recommend it, unlike Wicked, which was, well, wicked. If you are thinking of seeing it, I can give you specific details.
Camden Market (only one tiny bit of it--the market covers a large area with hundreds of shops and stalls) It was crazy there on the Saturday as the "Camden Crawl" was going on. More than 100,000 participants buy passes and can go into any of 21 pubs featuring live music from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m. over the long weekend.
I'll post the Paris photos later.
