Out of the Jurisdiction: Last Morning in London

I made it through the British Museum.



All the schoolchildren in the UK descended on the British Museum.  No air conditioning.
Perspiring pre-teens.  Even the best-mannered kids make lots of noise and emit blasts of heat.
Noise and heat rise, and I was the tallest person around.




Elgin marbles.  Check.  Rosetta stone.  Check.  A few Egyptian and Assyrian kings.  Check.

I'm outta here!

Time to go to a Heathrow hotel for an early flight back to the USA in the morning.

  1. What an honour -to have all those children turn out just to welcome the distinguished American visitor. They won't do that for Trump.
