London Day 1

We arrived via Virgin ontime and to a rainy morning in London. 3 hours later we arrived at our temporary flat in Westminster, only 86 steps to the door!
We went to Trafalgar and spent hours wandering through the National Gallery and the Portrait Gallery. The Tutors Gallery is breathtaking, the portraits of Queen Victoria and Anne Boleyn that I have seen so many times in books, but to see them in person almost brought me to tears.
Tonight we are going to St. Martins in the Fields Church to listen to classical music in a crypt!
Once we get to Oxford tomorrow I will upload pics.
Cheers.
