Due to poor planning and an early start time, we missed the web seminar this morning. I guess that's why we have Shareen.
So, we regrouped and settled back. (Sarah, I had a pain au chocolat for breakfast in honor of your absence.)
Contrary to Scott's posting, I was just being friendly on the train yesterday. If you were stuck in a foreign country with Scott, wouldn't you talk to the first friendly person you encountered as much as possible? (Just kidding, buddy.)
London is a beautiful shade of gray, with just a tinge of pewter this morning. Anyway, I think we're off to do a bit of sightseeing. Suggestions from those of you who've been here are welcome.

I love the frequency of your posts! Don't forget to go to Piccadilly Circus. On the corner you'll see a sports-clothing store there called Lilly Whiles. You can actually find reasonably priced clothing there, or find a deal on last year's 'football kit' (the jersey).

Also, don't forget to pick up a copy of Private Eye. You can find it at any old newsagent or bookshop.

You'll love it.. and I'd love to see when it when you're done.
Cheers!
The Hop on Hop off tours are the way to go for sightseeing.

If you're looking for something a little less touristy, we really enjoyed Sloan Square. Look for the place (I'm sure there are multiple places) that sells Cornish pasties - you must try one. On the other hand, if you're looking for a sensory overload, get off at the Oxford Circus stop and check out the H&M store.
Abbey Road!
Also - Concur with Ben. Post frequency is fab.
If you like sushi...go to Yo Sushi over by the London Eye. The dishes travel around on a conveyor belt and you just pick up what you want to eat!
Love the blog... keep posting!

I love Yo Sushi! Excellent choice, Kyle. Anyway, make a trip down to Brixton. Just don't go at night. Or, go to Baker Street/Bond Street/Oxford Circus area. You could also get off at the St. James Park stop and go to Westminster Abbey.
If you go to the Tower of London you'll get to see the Crown Jewels (go ahead...insert your own 8th grade joke here).
If you need an energy boost try a drink called Lucozade. They had them in Ireland but think it can be found in London. The stuff is nasty tasting but apparently good for a pick me up.
Love the posts... keep'em comin!

If you do check out the Tower of London (which you should), don't get duped into visiting the Torture Museum. Not worth it.
Also, tell Scott to check out the British group "Towers of London". They look like what he did when he was in high school.
Go see the Eifel Tower. I heard it's cool and kind of like the one at King's Island
