allrighty then! Lord of the Rings and King Lear are both great in their own way.... though entirly uncomparable. King Lear would have been more enjoyable if we had been allowed to sit! feet pain does not let the mind concentrate on entertainment. We had a brief, 2 hour sunny spell today, which is now over and rain is gracing this city, making it quite drab. However, now we know their secret to green! now all we have to do is persuade the rain gods of Arizona to rain... one suggestion was the collapsing of bridges, not quite sure where that came from.
We are all foot-weary and rather sore, but haveing lots of fun, albeit exhaustive fun. Food is pretty good; there is a really wide variaty. Indian yesterday, Thia today and good ole Fish n chips. St. Paul's Cathedral is amazing!! though no pictures are allowed, as it is a place of worship. these British really knew their stone-work and masonry. Such intrecacies EVERYWHERE in these buildings(we also saw Westminster Abbey)
That's all for now,

Now you desert rats can see what you have been missing with regard to weather and lush landscape. We really only know one color in Tucson and that is brown! Isn't is amazing how beautiful the architecture is and realizing that when those buildings were constructed, they did not have the tools and technology we have now!
You guys have lots more to see....enjoy!!! :)
Please tell Emily we are thinking about her and wish her a very Happy 17th Birthday in Florence. We want her to eat lots of gellato for us!! We love the blog. Thank you for sharing with us.
