London Photos

Yeah! Through the wonders of technology I was able to recover almost all of the photos. Here are a select few! Enjoy!

Trafalgar square - where the big New Years Eve celebration happens and where all distances are computed from:

St Paul's Cathedral - gorgeous . . .
The Tower of London - there are crown jewels in here somewhere as well as Beefeaters. This is also where Anne Boleyn was executed as well as Lady Jane Gray. Very imposing . . .

There are several statues of the Queen around town of course:
Shots of Westminster Abbey:

I found it funny how many lion sculptures there were all throughout - the ones in Trafalgar are really neat, but I liked this one:
The London Eye - moves VERY slowly but gives a great view. Line was too long and I didn't want to wait this trip:
Oh, here's my lunch. Cottage pie, Pea and Ham soup and Guinness. Lunch of champions!

Big Ben - neat sound!
The tower bridge - really pretty!
Buckingham Palace gates - see the flag up? But not the standard . . . so she (Queen Betty) wasn't home and we couldn't visit.
The Welsh Guard coming in for the changing of the guard ceremony at the palace.

View down the Thames - that is the Tower Bridge in the distance:

It took all day to tour around town on the double-decker bus and didn't have time to actually go into any buildings - will do that next time.
