The weather has been mild but rainy, but overall not bad.

N has really enjoyed exploring London. We found a great book of cool maps yesterday at the museum of natural history. He said "Once our eyes met, I knew… that this would be the book… that I'd be spending the rest of my… week reading."

I've been in a lot of bookstores.

We have had fun! One more full day tomorrow and then back home.
