DAY 5 PM: Trafalgar Square and The National Gallery of London

   We walked down Whitehall, which is equivalent to our Constitution Avenue.  We saw all the government offices, and #10 Downing Street where the Prime Minister lives (and trust me - nobody would get over HIS fence!)
   Trafalgar Square commemorates Admiral Nelson's victory over the French & Spanish armadas in about 1805.  Now it's a place for people to hang and meet up and is right out front of The National Gallery of Art.
We really thought we'd run through the Gallery, but ended up staying for hours.  We began with the 13th Century artwork and worked our way through to 18th-20th century area of the museum  We once again listened to the audiotapes and learned so much!!  

 Trafalgar Square - an interesting fountain behind Geof

and that's me with the Trafalgar Square (185 foot high) monument

and some of our favorite paintings from the National Gallery

This woman was sketching a painting - we saw this all over the art gallery - groups on field trips, adults wandering and drawing!  Quite a place!  We decided we can probably find exactly the same thing in downtown D.C.
