London, Day 4: Riding the Tube

I rode the London Underground for the first time today. It was far easier than I expected. We all received rail passes as part of our trip package, and all I had to do was stick the pass in a slot that let me into the station. From there, we selected the appropriate rail line and boarded the train. The trains were pretty crowded, but the ride was short. I noticed that the tunnels were very dusty. The trains come pretty frequently. When we got off, another train had arrived at the station before we left the tunnel. So to sum up, riding the tube is fast, convenient, and easy.

The view, however, is lousy.
