Last Stop: London

We have no clean clothes left. Our legs are aching from constant walking. We have sampled so many different foods and beers that we don't know what else to try. We're longing for the quiet of a town rather than a city.

I'd say it's a good thing we're getting on a plane tomorrow!

We have loved the adventure but Minnesota is calling us home. And we're hoping it's warmer there than London!

We spent the last few days exploring the South Bank of London.


Anna visited London two years ago and only got a small sample of this part of the city. It's been fun to wander along the Thames. We've walked past The Globe Theatre nearly a dozen times. Each time, we have to remind ourselves that this isn't a normal walk. Shakespeare was here!!

Since we've flown in from Prague we've done a lot:

We explored the Tower of London

We saw where Anne Boleyn had her head chopped off (Sorry, Anne)

We tried very hard NOT to say "dĂȘkuji" when saying thank you! Czech words are now a part of our everyday vocabulary if seems.

We got a peek at the crowned jewels (no pictures allowed...for a good reason)

We went inside the historic and awesome Tower bridge

We wandered through Westminster Abbey (home of a lot of important and historic English skeletons)

We even met up with some friends who Anna and Roger got to know through her friend Stephanie's wedding this past summer.

We've done almost everything we wanted to do on our Wencl adventure to Europe. We might squeeze even one more thing in tomorrow before we head to Heathrow. That's if our legs can carry us.

It's been fun to share our trip with you all! Thanks for following along with our silly blog. We can wait to share stories with many of you in person very soon!

Much love from across the pond,
Rog + Anna
