Priscilla Doesn't Like Anyone.....







































Good evening. This is gonna be quick, b/c I am not sure how much internet time we have left!
So on Sunday, we went to the Tower of London. Now our guidebook says to allot 3-4 hours for this. We were there seven hours. First, there are a lot of placards there. Second, there are lines EVERYWHERE. We are now line experts. If there is a line, we will find it. If there isn't a line, we will attract a line. P.S. Lindsay is developing an unhealthy Henry VIII fixation. Might need a intervention there.
Then, we went on a Jack the Ripper tour that night.
Today, we did a lightning fast Windsor Castle/Stonehenge/ Bath tour. Now our tour guide was Priscilla. And on the twelve hours we were on the tour, we discovered Priscilla does not like, in no particular order: homeschooling, children, smelly food, rich people, taxes, "French Gangs", and rubbish universities. She does, however, like thatched roof cottages and roadway bus lanes. Complex woman. We ate a traditional British pub, which served Lindsay Fish and chips, with skin and bones intact. At the end of the meal, the entire slab of fish was still there, staring at her, taunting her with its scaly skinny body. Put eyes on it and it could have swam home.
The highlight of my night was using the Marriott Park Lane restroom. Big shout out to the lady at the front desk who saved my bladder after a three hour bus ride back from Bath.
Also, did you know restaraunts here close really early? For a time, we thought we were like the Mary and Joseph of food establishments - there was no room for us at the pub. Everywhere we went, they were closing. Maybe it was just us. But darn if we wouldn't have eaten in a manger last night if given the option. We have even had pizza delivered to us- and Lindsay has two day old chicken wings still here in the room as proof.
Anyways, we do want to say hello to everyone who is reading this! We get really excited every night looking at comments and seeing who are our followers!
Thank you!
P.S. Maybe if we are lucky, the travel channel will get ahold of this and hire us to replace Samantha Brown.
