Love the pics, I'm going to be pedantic though and say, that's not Big Ben. Big Ben is the bell inside the tower. That said, so many people call the tower Big Ben, I reckon they should rename it.
Hi Mike,
Looks like you certainly got around a good bit, there is quite a bit to take in here and you never got to see God,s own country Wales, Hi.
Scot,s weather is brilliant, you can have three seasons in one day, just wait 20 mins. Glad you had a great time.

Hi Mike, seems like you enjoyed our fine country, what did you think of the British pubs ?

Hi Steve, yes we were told that on the tour bus that we took through London. Funny how that clock is know as Big Ben and most don't know about the bell.
Yes Steve we very much like Scotland and we did have many weather changes through out the days we were there. We just expected it so the weather changes were not a surprise.
Hi Paul, the British pubs were great and we did hit lots of them. I tried lots of new brands as well.
Mike ...
