St. Paul's cathedral after the afternoon mass

more images of St Paul's from a goggle search
and some history (we haven't read yet)

We shared beetroot and seed cake at Somerset House (+)
actually at the Courtauld Gallery Cafe that is within the
building complex. (we will go and visit the gallery soon).

at Trafalgar Square, to the left is the National Gallery

there to the right you can see the bottom of the famous
Nelson Column - tired after all that cycling ..

on one of the many bridges over the river Thames on the
way home. To the left you can see the House of Parliament
at Westminsterand that big wheel is called: The London Eye.
