A Quick trip to the Tower.....

We went up to London for Nathan's 30th birthday! Did I just say that out loud?  He had lot's of friends over in the afternoon/evening for a party so we popped into the city to the Tower of London and Covent Garden for a few hours then back to his for the party. Chris gave us his usual brilliant guided tour through the city as we drove to and from Nathan's. They were setting up for the London marathon being run the next day. It was a really lovely day.
