Well, yesterday was a full day. I saw Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, the Tower Bridge, the London Eye, and a few other touristy things... and then I went to Stonehenge, which was amazing. After seeing it in so many pictures (and Windows XP backgrounds) it's absolutely incredible to be standing there in front of it.

Then in the evening I took a Jack the Ripper walking tour, which was really interesting; the guide was Donald Rumbelow, who's apparently the leading international authority on the Ripper. He made it seem like a story; it was like walking through a movie set. At one point, we were standing in front of a parking garage and Donald was describing the apartment building that used to be there, where Mary Kelly (the last victim) was murdered. Suddenly, a young man climbed over the second-story garage railing, shinnied down to the ground, and ran down the alley. It was eerie, like seeing a reenactment of what it must have been like to a passerby, even though the building was different.

Anyway, now I'm sitting in an internet cafe in Oxford Street. I shopped and hit Starbucks (the slowest Starbucks in the entire world!), and I'm about to go to the London Dungeon, of which I know very little except that it's supposed to be (a) entertaining, and (b) creepy. We'll see.
