For example just behind The National Gallery is the

Edith Cavell was a nurse who was executed as a spy during WWI, for those who don't know.


The National Gallery -

Yes I did go in for a short time ... it is a really lovely building with some beautiful pieces of work. So I wandered round and studied some small Canelleto's (of Venice).

St Martin in the Fields -




Nelson's Column ... again the sun was very low by now -




And, so back to the hostel ... via Kings Cross MacDonalds, of course!
