Tuesday

Today was a day to remember. We met people of all types and dove deeper into the British culture. We saw great sights and walked a great distance. We explored the underground world of London and its tunnels and felt its heat every time we entered. The tube is a world in its own. Outside, the cold wind chills our every move while the underground offers new opportunities at every stop. For us, the tube was a transition and a time to breath. The streets were busy and people moved about their day without hesitation.
En route to Big Ben, we came across a protest staged by residents of Sri Lanka who were outraged at the atrocities occurring in their homeland. We briefly photographed this event and moved on towards new sights. Later in the evening, we found ourselves in a casino, not to gamble but to relax with a drink. We met a few very interesting and inspiring human beings. The night ended right with our spirits high and with great hope and expectation for tomorrow!
