3rd times a charm

Gosh it rained this morning not a good start to the day but thankfully the walk to the tube is short. Today we visit St Paul's for the 3rd time and finally saw it all. Due to poor planning on the previous visits we had never managed to see it all but we organised ourselves well today. Getting on the 1.5 hour super tour meant we got to see the mathematical staircase - as seen in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban and got to sit in the quire stalls and really see the moasic ceiling. Chris was our guide was very knowledgeable and gave us an excellent history of the building. After the tour and a cup of tea we had a full walk around and of course exited through the gift shop. We were meant to attend afternoon tea at the V and A in the Morris room but Cheryl was still feeling not the best so we flagged that but still had a quick visit to see a few things we had missed on the previous visit. Then it was off to late night at the Tate which was a really enjoyable trip through the Burne Jones exhibition. Tomorrow is Windsor and viewing Megan's wedding dress.
