Today we were able to take a panoramic view of London. We saw such monuments as Big Ben, London Tower, and Buckingham Palace, to name a few of the special sites. It is fun to be in a city that is buzzing about the upcoming Olympics.

We later went to the United States Embassy. This embassy is the largest in Europe. While we were there, several embassy staff members briefed us on thier roles in the organization. We also learned about some of the education that the United States Meat Export Federation (USMEF} does to promote American protien products in Europe.
