London (The Globe)

From Battle we went on to London for Rosanne's boring business meeting. David, like the good industry wife he is, went shopping for clothes and shoes. Rosanne came back to the hotel room to be greeted with boxes strewn all over the bed.

While in London, we visited The Globe and decided not to go to Ireland, and instead to come back to London from Scotland in order to see Julius Caesar when the season opened. After all, it was the 400th season at the Globe!! (Even if it wasn't really the original Globe).
