Greenwich

The last time we were in London we visited Cutty Sark and the Royal Observatory in Greenwich. On that visit we found the National Maritime Museum but with other plans for the day, we decided that "it would keep for another day". With a forecast of rain for much of the day today, we decided that today would finally be that "other day".

We took the Tube and DLR to Greenwich and arrived in the middle of a downpour. Doing our best to keep dry, we made our way to the Museum where we spent the next few hours learning much about England's maritime history. 

By mid afternoon the rain had cleared so we spent the rest of our time wandering around Greenwich. We finished our day by walking under the Thames. Yes, there is a 100 year old pedestrian tunnel under the Thames...so we walked through because you could.
