After considerable indecision, I decided to visit St. Paul’s Cathedral. I had seen Westminster the last time I was in London and decided to cover new ground this time. I was also influenced by a PBS special I had seen about how the cathedral survived the Blitz. That show really moved me, the image of this cathedral surviving fire bombing that devastated everything around it. I wanted to see it, stand in the middle of it and marvel at its resilience in the face of that attack.
