The sights that you mentioned with all their history really suits the mood I am in right now. I just finished a wonderful book calle"Old Filth" by Jane Gardam. It is about a legendary English solicitor and judge, who practiced in Hong Kong and then retired in Dorset. it is steeped in English history and there is so much in it about the history of the legal system in Britain and the Inner Temple, etc. It is a beautiful novel and very English. Your post has continued the journey I took in that book.

Gail ...Thanks for the lovely comments, my friends. Gail asked about how easy it is to get back and forth to the city center. It's very easy! From the Bank Tube station, it takes about 15 minutes on the DLR. You can use your Oyster card on the DLR, so it's simple to do. You can also take the train or a bus to Greenwich. The prettiest and most leisurely way to get there is by boat. I highly recommend taking one of the riverboats on a sunny day.Gigi Thibodeauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15326335927273800932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8968803817110676732.post-22474689763647545312012-03-26T21:25:40.019-04:002012-03-26T21:25:40.019-04:00This was wonderful Gigi!

And I love hearing about London with your stories, seeing it through your eyes. We didn't get to Greenwich last time, bad weather on our last full day with intention to wander around there made us stick to the City and do some shopping instead. Next time! Oh, how I wish we were going to London this summer, but we have other plans this year. Last summer when we were in London we stayed in a flat, which was the best experience of our 12 years or so going to London. A hotel--never again, if we can help it. ;o) Such thrills hearing about your trip.
