The Tradition of Hazardous Climbs Continues

I just don’t have nearly enough time here. London is huge and there are an incredible number of things to see and do. I’ve studiously avoided things I did during my last visit here, and I still haven’t even really begun to scratch the surface. And today is my only full day, because I leave […]
