    How about gifts for your pal Tony in Chicago. I think he'd like you to bring back Bridget Jones....if you don't mind.

    You find any good eats there ?

    Last night we ate at a French brasserie. Very art deco. Then to the American bar for a drink.

    Was it any good though ? If the French do one thing and do it well, it's chicken. Seriously....

    Take a gamble, go down a side street and hit a local pub or eatery. Chat up the locals, English are very friendly.

    Yes, had chicken in champagne sauce. Quite good. The escargots were just OK, we make them better at home. So today my adventure took me to hamley's a five story toy store. Bought the kids a little gift. Then walked to see London bridge.

    Actually we all been mistaken, that is called tower bridge. Most westerners call it London bridge. I was on London bridge taking the pic of tower bridge. London bridge looks like any other bridge.London Bridge is a bridge in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. It was built in the 1830s and formerly spanned the River Thames in London, England. It was dismantled in 1967 and relocated to Arizona.
