Today was spent touring London on the Hop On-Hop Off Bus.  It was a beautiful day, 75 degrees, warm sun, on top of the bus.  If you have any questions about the tour, ask Linda.  I took a nap.  We bought tickets to see "Dreamboats and Petticoats" tomorrow night at the Playhouse Theater.  A musical with music from Roy Orbison and others from the 1960's.  Sometimes I felt like I was still in France or Germany when I tried to talk to these people.  I have a difficult time understanding the Kings English.  After the bus tour, we opted for a river cruise on the Thames River.  Very enjoyable and scenic.  Included in todays photos you will see one of King George III, the last King of the United States, prior to our rebellion.  I must say the people over here are very cordial, however, do not want to discuss the 4th of July with me.  Just another workday to them.

A Day in Germany Continues Part II

As was stated earlier, our plans were changed but we still had a great day. The clouds stated and a little light rain fell from the heavens.  Since the top of Germany wasn't happening for us today, our tour guides Jerry & Linda (my brother & sister-in-law) developed a change in plans.  They took us to Schloss Neuschwanstein (Cinderella Castle) for Pat and me to tour. Jerry & Linda had already did the tour so they visited  one of the local villages.  Here are some pictures at the castle. Our ride to the Castle from the parking area.
