St. Paul's Cathedral


Today we went on a Supertour of St. Paul's Cathedral with our tour guide Chris. It was very informative, and we learned about the history of the site (there were 2 churches there BEFORE St. Paul's was built) as well as some of the intricate mosaic work inside.


After the tour, most of the group still had a lot of energy, and we climbed the many, many steps up the dome to the top. The views of London were spectacular, and the weather today was ideal.


We have an extended weekend, but we'll pick up with visits to Westminster Abbey and the Houses of Parliament next week.
