- After a leisurely breakfast at department store TJ Hughes, we headed off to St. Paul's Cathedral
- Staff were very accommodating, providing a wheelchair for Yvonne to use while we admired the soaring walls, gilded and painted domes, and memorials
- The aspect changed dramatically when a visiting choir began their rehearsal: the hallowed halls resonated with sacred tones; now the church seemed alive, rather than just a memorial to the dead (i.e. side chapels with tombs etc.)
- We finished our day with an unguided double-decker bus ride to Paddington Station, where we caught the tube then overground home to Watford
- Thanks to all for your interest in reading our blog! Tomorrow we catch the train for Gatwick airport at 6:53 a.m. so this will likely be the end of the blogs for this trip
- Looking forward to a quiet relaxing week with the family at a rented cottage in Gatineau, Quebec next week!
- CHEERS! (and thanks for all your prayers)
