Trip 15

 May 15, 2023

 

Rose early, texted Uber.

Made a promise to selves,

we will learn the London “tube.”

 

All-day tour

Found the group

Boarded the bus.

 

This on the left

That on the right

Things we should revisit.

 

Mounted horses this way.

Now they’re going that way.

We couldn’t prove the guards changed.

 

Ornate, St. Paul’s Cathedral.

Short and sweet solemn service,

but tour guide sounded apologetic.

 

Tower of London: palace, prison, zoo.

Who cares about crown jewels?

Sadness and gift shops.

 

River Cruise-one way.

But was it the right way?

Said hi to the bell, Big Ben.

 

Home again. Relaxed.

Played Splendor.

Eek a mouse!
