Site: St. Paul's Cathedral, Tate Britain
My last day in London! I have loved it, but I am glad to be going home.
I went to St. Paul's Cathedral, which is amazing! It is enormous. I don't know how they built it in the seventeenth century. It is also beautiful. I thought about going up to the top of the dome, but it was over 500 steps, so 25-30 flights. I did go to the crypt and saw the graves of Alexander Fleming, Nelson, Wellington, and Florence Nightingale.
St. Paul's is so big, it is difficult to get a good picture!

Next stop: the Tate Britain. It is a little smaller than some of the other museums, so it feels more manageable. I really enjoyed the Pre-Raphaelite collection.
