John was wanting to go to the Houses of Parliament to listen to the discussion on Brexit before they vote tonight. He spent a good four hours there listening to the discussions. He said Theresa May was there talking for about an hour and then left her Attorney General to continue. He said it was fascinating to be there and listen to their thoughts on it, but now we have to wait for a couple of hours before they take the vote.
As we were on our own, Samantha and I decided to go to Borough Market and walk around. They have so many fascinating food stalls there that you can find just about anything you are looking for. We ate at “Fish” which is one of the best fish and chip shops ever. Of course I had to stop at the Bread Ahead stand to pick up some of their world-famous donuts. After walking around there some more, we then headed along the Thames to Tate Modern to see the updated exhibitions. Afterwards, Costa for tea and a snack then home. Just as we arrived John showed up from his day out.






Great photos and how interesting for John to hear them. Difficult decisions ahead based on the vote. Enjoying your stories!
Thanks Judy, yes not sure how it will all turn out. I have pros and cons on both sides that’s for sure.
We will have to have you guys guide us around London you are getting to know it so well…very nice. We did go to House of Commons and listen to some debate and it is really enlightening!
We can get around, but it is Samantha you need as a guide, she really knows it,
It’s always a surprise for Americans to see how much of a free-for-all it can sometimes be in Parliament.
I wish they would redo the referendum and stay in Europe. That is a strictly a selfish wish because I can get British citizenship if I want and that would put me in the short lines at so many airports 🙂
Yes, John gets such a kick out of the way they yell across the aisle at each other.
