A Day Out in London
I thought I would bore you all with some pics taken in London yesterday. Unfortunately we weren't allowed to take photos inside the Houses of Parliament.......
Big Ben ...... did you hear the 1 o' clock chime?
Looking across Westminster Bridge......
View across the road on Westminster Bridge, the street vendor spoils the view but I suppose he has to make a living....
Westminster Abbey.....
The Sovereign's entrance to the Houses of Parliament when she performs the State opening of Parliament.....
Looking above the Sovereign's Entrance......
Richard I .....
Oliver Cromwell.....
Winston Churchill....
King George V.......
Burghurs of Calais......
London Eye.....
Calypso beat to keep the waiting London Eye queues entertained.....
Bird's Eye View.....
Cruising down the Thames ......

Re: A Day Out in London
We went on the Eye during our visit to London last year DM ...... it was a great experience. Each capsule holds 25 people and it's still quite roomy. The views from the top of the wheel are fantastic, you are able to see miles and miles across London on a clear day.Edited to say my pics of the wheel trip last year are on Catsey

That's often the way when you have something practically on your doorstep, isn't it?!
