Q: can you tell me how to get to the Tower of London on foot?
A: No, but if you want to take the tube, I can tell you how to get to the
palace.

A: Right foot, left foot, same as walking to the palace.
{pause} or the tube station, if you want to walk to the tube station
I can tell you how to get to the palace.
