Been to Little Rock where I visited President Clinton's library. I highly recommend!

Liverpool - 17 March 2010
This isn't in the book, but I guess it is a must see for Beatles' fan.
We didn't plan to be in Liverpool on St. Patrick's Day, but it was a fun day to be there. My hotel was very centrally located. I could walk to the Cavern Club, dozens of pubs, and the waterfront. Parts of Liverpool at very run down and look depressed, but part of this city is thriving.

UK 15 March
I was working, but took detours to knock two cathedrals off of my list from "1000 places to see before you die."
Cathedral Church of St. Andrew in Wells - interior picture is from this church
Salisbury Cathedral - outside pic is from this church

I was amazed at how large the Salisbury Cathedral is. You can see the steeple for miles...and miles...and miles. And it is impressive standing in front of it.

London 13 March
Back in London - yeah!!
I am staying at a different hotel this time and I love it. The location is awesome - I can see the London Eye and Big Ben from my window. I can walk to the offices of three clients - BIS, Parliament and DECC.
I spent the afternoon walking, which included a wander through Trafalgar Square, past Parliament and Westminster Abbey. I had afternoon tea at my hotel. I like afternoon tea!
I saw Private Lives at the Vaudeville theatre. This is a Noel Coward play that I've seen before. It was awesome! It is a comedy, and was very funny. It starred Kim Cattrall and a British actor that I hadn't heard of before.
The worst part of the day - a few body parts STILL hurt from skiing in Vail two weeks ago. I couldn't walk as much as I wanted because I have a sore knee and ankle. I guess I better take it easy....but that is hard because there is always lots to see in the city - even stuff I've seen before is fun to see again.
