"Look kids - Big Ben, Parliment"
I spent my first day doing some serious sightseeing. Hopefully, this will be one of many as there are so many amazing things to see here. I walked around in a misty and rainy haze today and ended up seeing Buckingham Palace completely soaked. I guess when in London, do as the London-ers do. While I was there just in time for the changing of the guard, they cancelled the ceremony due to rain - go figure. I also wandered down the Diana Princess of Wales memorial walk. I will have to enjoy this again on a much nicer day. Then, it was off to Harrod's for a quick lunch, some shopping and a sign-in on the Doty Al-Fayed and Princess Diana memorial book.
This evening was spent having drinks with a couple other secondment people from the US. We've all agreed to meet up at least one time per month just to keep in touch. It will be nice to lean on each other while we are here.
I start work on Monday. I can't wait to infuse some "B. Bird lingo" into the office. I'm sure they will be amazed.
On that note, Peace out.

B-
Be careful introducing the "Bbird Lingo" as we know it can scare small children, you don't want to be scaring off those good looking men with great shoes!
I am glad to hear you are hitting the pubs, who needs a wagon anyways? That a girl, I am so proud!
B - So excited for your new adventure, and even more so to jump on-line and read about it!
Go teach those Brit Birds some Bird Style!
GO BEARS!!
