The National Gallery

 
Check out who's in the crowd.  We didn't notice them when we were there. Bill stands next an actual living picture near the National Gallery. - Those are all live plants that were used to design the picture. It started to rain, so we ducked in here for lunch.  This is a chain seen - all over the UK and they make great salads, soups and sandwiches. The gate to the road leading to Buckingham Palace The road to Buckingham Palace, which is closed to traffic on Sundays.
