Throughout my life, I think I had not walked so much before... furthermore with my leg injury, I was expecting some pain here but to my amazement, this did not happen. I only felt that my legs then did not belong to me anymore, they were like auto-cruise, they walked on and on... no more "FEELING"... hahahahaha...
Coca Cola London Eye, Westminster Bridge Road...
And here we are!
And having fun with it...
Just opposite is the Big Ben with the sun against us...
We didn't join the river cruise but we cruised along the River Thames...
We crossed the bridge to the other side to join the tourists...
As we walked along the banks of River Thames...
As we cruised along with our legs....
If not mistaken, this is Waterloo Bridge...
Or is it Blackfriars Bridge...
And from afar, we saw the iconic bridge.. Tower Bridge!
One must not leave London without coming here... so they say...
And so we must take one....
And two....
Coming nearer and nearer....
The Military Museum Ship at dock...
Finally... after many endless footsteps..... we joined the crowd....
The first thing I did.....
Sat rooted to the bench....
I am finally here!!
The London Tower Bridge...
Bye.. till we meet again..someday!
Beautiful blue sky. And I love the view of the bridge.
ReplyDeleteYes, it was a perfect weather..
DeleteDid you go up the Eye. I wouldn't dare - I have developed this phobia for heights!!! Didn't use to have that problem, dunno if it has got to do with old age.
ReplyDeleteNo, I didnt! First thing, it is not free.. secondly, like you, i fear heights too!
DeleteWell, all good things must come to and end but other good things will begin! That was a wonderful trip. I must save more money so that I can also go kai kai when I retire :D
ReplyDeleteI have confidence in you! Surely you can go now if you have the time.. hehehee
DeleteDid you go to Borough Market? Its a foodie market.
ReplyDeleteOh, another foodie market? Next round.. hmmm...
DeleteBorough Market is in London Bridge. Best to go on Saturday when all the stores are open. The stuff are expansive but there are some gems. Good buys: Edam cheese from unpasteurised milk with complex flavours, Parma ham pork (vacuum pack, good for making soup).
DeleteEach borough has its own farmers market. There are a couple of good ones, a bus ride or so from Old Street.
Praise the Lord that you walk so much without experiencing any pain...
ReplyDeleteYes! Thank God for that!
DeleteGreat fun pictures! I see you have managed to shrink the Eye so you can hold it. And the sun behind the palace is gorgeous! You never even look tired, you must have the energy of a 20 year old! Very healthy.
ReplyDeleteYes, thank God for the battery in me! And the weather was perfect... it did not make me tired..
DeleteThe cruise very expensive leh, cruising on foot is a wise choice. Tired legs is temporary, memory is permanent. :P
ReplyDeleteYou are very right, CL!!
DeleteI like your photo holding the london eye. You can pose so well!
