...and many other incredibly important people buried in Westminster Abbey. I saw the burial place for Isaac Newton. (And also a few people who were kings or queens or some such, I don't remember.) What an amazing place. So beautiful, so completely cluttered with incredible artwork and amazing atmosphere.

Other things we've done so far during our trip to London and the UK Filk con:

- Ridden the trains, buses, and the Tube.
- Saw an incredible concert.
- Ate and drank in a great English pub. Sausage!
- Shopped at Harrod's
- Walked in an English rain.
- Saw the most awesome comic book store
- Took a million pictures (to be posted later).
- Wikistalked the band getting on the plane ahead of us because they looked like a heavy metal band and I glimpsed the drummer's name on his boarding pass. (Vixy's comment as I showed her the Wikipedia article in the palm of my hand while gesturing subtly at the people in front of us on the jetway: "I love living in the future.")
- Force-adjusted ourselves to the new time zone in one night.
- Got our picture taken at platform 9.75 (and also came and went into London via that same train station).
- Got treated extremely well by our hosts, Mike Whitaker and Rika Koerte.

We've still got another London day to go, and we're hoping it will involve the Tower of London and the British Museum. Then off to the convention on Friday. I suppose we should come up with a set list and rehearse? I've come down with a cold, so I don't know if I'll be singing in the sets or not, but I'm relatively sure Vixy will be singing. :-)
