In Praise of the Fast Past--London Style

Bob and I just got back from London (well almost, just -- it has been a week & 2 days but I've been busy). He went on business. I went on Holiday. It was really fun. I knocked 2 items off my list of things to see (yes, I keep a running list of things I want to see in London) -- The Palace of Westminster (That's Parliament to the uninformed) and the Tate Modern. They had a great Gaugin exhibit. Bob and I took a open air bus tour; I went to Harrod's (Bob hated it). We saw the V&A, St. Paul's twice.

We went to the Royal Albert Hall. The tour was a hour away. Bob had a "fast pass" (ala Disneyland) and we took a really quick tour. Later that evening, we went to services in Westminster Abbey. Walked over to the London Eye. Bought a ticket. Again, Bob had a fast pass for the line.

Here is the London Fast Pass:
