We didn't have time to tour the tower owing to all the time we spent on the train tickets, so we settled for a little exploratory tour of the outside and the gift shop.

Lost again .. Dizzying...
She's giving that look again....
I know where I am damnnit!
What ever!
Now where are we?
What?
Ask directions!
Out comes the finger of eternal nagging and lecturing....
Now you listen here!
I told you..... you told me...
Cue eye rolling... Let's go!
Footsore and having to pee, we search for an underground station entrance.  Suyen is learning the hard way about practical footwear.  Steve is learning the hard way that sore feet equals a sore wife!
Cue the yelling and arguing!
followed by ... silent treatment...
At Last... the Underground, thanks to good navigating by Steve!
Waiting on a train....
Back at Liverpool Street station...
