AWESOME second to last day

To say we've hit our stride is an understatement. I do not want to come home. This trip has been a wonderful fire under our backsides (even though we're at risk for rickets and scurvy due to overall lack of vegetables). 

Yesterday was just so great. First up: ultimate touristy visit to Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum. 

Here I am with Benedict Cumberbatch. 
His is a good likeness; mine, not so much (except for the lip gloss). 
I think Scott looks more like Robert Downey Jr. Than RDJ does. 
The Prince Harry figure is a dead ringer. 

After you go through celebrities and sports and political and cultural icons, you get to a wild 4-D movie of Marvel comic book characters. We got sneezed on by the Incredible Hulk. Gross!  Then you take a crazy little tram ride through a display called something like The History of London, which is full of moving characters and great sound effects, and then you see Star Wars. 
Here's Frances having a chat with Chewbacca. 
I loved it there --good time cheesy fun. 
But we can't sustain this pace without some respite, so we came back to the flat for an afternoon of rest. Scott and I each napped about two hours!
