Cross Country Day
... 20 the big drop. Apparently after watching the replay, it appeared that Bendigo caught his front shoe with his back shoe causing him to trip going down the bank. This really dashed the Australian Hopes of getting a medal.

We walk from our hotel down the hill to St. Paul's Cathedral. To get there, we must pass through the business heart of London. It is a ghost town. Bicyclists rip along some of the streets, taking advantage of the lack of traffic. The city buses are still on their routes, and a taxi or two goes by. Otherwise there isn't much.
