European Security Alert

I have been slack in my postings lately so I have lots to report today.  As some of you may have heard there is an increased security alert in Europe right now because of the threat of terrorist attacks.  My route to school takes me right by Downing Street and Westminister and let me tell you I can definitely tell that there is more security around.  I literally pass a police officer about every three feet.  Last night the "unarmed" British police had their machine guns on full display in front of Downing Street.  It may just have been a shift change, but it was an unexpected sight in the UK.  I didn't dare take a picture of the cops, so a picture of the Downing Street sign was the best I could do.
