London Monopoly


The start of today wasn't exactly something we had as part of the itinerary. Our first four hours was spent in the emergency ward of St Thomas' Hospital about a block from our hotel. Everyone is OK, but as we're not registered with a local doctor, it's the only way to see a GP while in England as a foreigner.
After a long wait, we all got checked out, and Sandra and I were diagnosed with tonsilitis. At least we were able to get some decent medication for the 23 hour flight home which starts tomorrow night.
After getting back to the hotel for a rest, we then decided we needed some fresh air and went for a gentle walk across the river to the centre of town. Sandra went her own way to do some shopping in the Convent Garden area, while the rest of us went on a Monopoly board tour of central London.
Johanna and I (while still feeling pretty run down), are now off to see Les Miserables in the West End before calling it a night.
