[QUOTE="Jonathan, post: 282773, member: 17183"] Walking in London on Thursday, from the Port of London (by the Tower of London), up river to Canary Wharf. The Port of London is where all the spices and foods were imported all those centuries ago. They'd land at Southwark and end up on market stalls in Borough. I spotted various signs that indicated that the Pilgrim Fathers, although from southwest England, actually set sail from London. The Mayflower pub was built a long time ago on the banks of the Thames and, I presume, lent its name to the new boat being built in its shadow.

I feel connected to America and wood! [/QUOTE]
