Woke up feeling a little better, and decided that rather than over-exert myself (again), I would set out for just one thing...The London Eye!
This giant ferris wheel had been drawing me to it since I first started reading up on London. I headed out on the tube to Westminster, expecting to be right there, but I must had made a mistake, because I still had quite a bit of walking. Luckily, I'd grown fond of my walks along the Thames.

I reached the eye, purchased my ticket, and got on line. The ride takes about thirty minutes, but offers some of the most spectacular views, especially of Parliament and Buckingham Palace.
I briefly decided to head out to Westminster Cathedral--but decided against pushing myself too far, and came back to the hotel. Dan ended up working late that night, so he brought home some sandwiches for dinner, which we ate in the room, then went to bed.
