London Tour
Westminster was extremely interesting, although I would have liked more time to look at all the plaques and things in Westminster Abbey, especially Poet's Corner. (Even though the guide didn't mention it, it's rather sad to see all the blank spots where names have been wiped away. But of course, memorials to nonwizarding folk mustn't be allowed anymore. Even if people still read their books.)
After walking all afternoon a few of us have blisters, and Portia even got a touch of heat stroke, so it's quite nice to be able to sit for a change. Honoria Sandoval went on last week's YPL trip to London, and she said that Cats Hexing came along to provide music on the boat tour. So people were really looking forward to it. But I suppose they weren't able to work it into their schedule two weeks in a row. Still, even without the music, the boat ride has been perfectly lovely. It's falling dusk now, and the lights along the river are so beautiful. And we still have the ghost tour at the Tower of London later tonight.

Oh, and Ginny, guess what...we were passing a newstand this morning, on our way to visit the Auror training centre, and Portia stopped to buy a copy of Purest Sparkle, because she always has to have a copy, and YOU'RE in it! Those were the pictures from that makeover you had, weren't they? They turned out quite lovely! There are almost four pages. You look quite a bit older. Gareth Archer said he could hardly believe it was you.
