An underground "tube" station

View from my orientation hotel, St. Giles.  Note Houses of Parliament in the distance

Greek carvings depicting the King's annual lion hunt

Incredible attention to detail

Lion meant to be funny in its pathetic demise. Most look on in sadness now.  The Greek lion was hunted to extinction.

Greek statues
