We got to London July 22nd, through Heathrow immigration in record time, and tubed into central London quite smoothly. Our apartment is on the 7th floor of Keats House, in Churchill Gardens, Pimlico, a very new London location for us, in the City of Westminster. The apartment is a two bedroom unit. Since it's someone's actual abode, and not a full-time rental, I won't do any interior pix. Daughter Rebecca had arrived earlier in the day, for a week's stay, and was waiting for us.

| The red dot in the center is where we are; just across the river from the old Battersea power plant, about a mile south of Buckingham Palace, etc.; Battersea is now a humongous shopping center/residential complex |

Looking the other way...Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, Victoria Tower
in the Houses of Parliament, London Eye, etc. |
 |
Grade II-listed Keats House; there are also a Shelley House, a Jane Austen
House, etc. |
 |
Battersea power plant, across the river from Churchill Gardens;
not affordable housing these days... |
