Arriving in London, we made our way to our B&B in Highbury. It was very comfortable, but perhaps just a little far from the Underground station. |
 |
|
Highbury Fields, between the B&B and the Underground station. We saw a fox here late one night. |
 |
|
We visited the usual tourist spots, such as Trafalgar Square ... |
 |
|
|
 |
|
|
 |
|
... the London Eye ... |
 |
|
... the Millennium Bridge ... |
 |
|
... and the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace. |
 |
|
|
 |
|
We took a boat down the Thames, past Tower Bridge ... |
 |
|
... the modern high-rise of Canary Wharf ... |
 |
|
... this modest little hotel ... |
 |
|
... the Royal Naval College at Greenwich, with Queen Anne's House behind ... |
 |
|
... and the Millennium Dome ... |
 |
|
... before reaching the Thames Barrier. |
 |
|
We visited Kew Gardens ... |
 |
|
|
 |
|
|
 |
|
... and the Tower of London. |
 |

 |
|
But we still do not know why this cow sculpture was in the middle of Leicester Square! |
