London? I'm over it.

-Breakfast in the jail/dungeon was crowded but well stocked. Bread and Nutella was plentiful. We bid our cell ado and headed out into the free London air for the day.

-The rain came early but after a struggle we managed to get Ace (our trusty netbook) online. We booked flights and a, hopefully much better, room while snacking on more pies and drinking more Americanos.



-After the caffeine took effect we were off to see… what we had already seen. There was more walking along the river, looking at churches, and eating pies.

-Somehow Maddy had missed the tower of London the first time we walked right by it (see day one/delirious time), so we decided to see what it was all about. Both the tower bridge and tower of London were pleasant surprises in a city that we had fully squeezed the life out of.



-Back at clink we discovered our first theft. Of the three meat pies we had left, only two remained. We had discussed the safest place to leave our packs for the day, and even though the bags were left untouched in the same room, European thieves apparently cannot resist the temptation of fresh meat pies.

-Note for future: lock up pies.

Off to Ireland we go.
