Spring on the Thames

A few things you should do when in London:

• Visit the Tate Modern museum & other museums,
• See the view from the London Eye or up The Shard,
• Walk around the Tower of London and or go up Tower Bridge,
• Stroll through Camden Town; visit Cottons bar and taste some Caribbean rums,
• Visit Kew Gardens (better during Spring and Summer),
• Visit the sites in Greenwich; see the Cutty Sark,
• Walk along the Thames River

Personally, I do not see the big deal in visiting Madame Tussauds but that is just because I am not too fussed about see celebrities. Do visit if you are into that though.

LET ME KNOW WHERE ELSE YOU HAVE VISITED!

The following are a few of my favourite pics from a stroll along the Thames River...

Please do feel free to LIKE the post and leave me your feedback. I do look forward to hearing from you :)

 

 

 

 

The View from The Shard

I decided to take a trip to "the top" by visiting the observational deck of The Shard, the tallest building in the European Union as at today 18th February, 2015 standing at 306 m (1,004 ft).

It was everything I thought it would be with amazing views of London for miles around. You can see everything from the 72nd floor; Wembley Stadium, Canary Wharf, London Eye, etc with the mighty Thames river running through it all, winding its way, creating the illusion that every destination is merely seconds away from the other.

The next time I decide to scale the tower, I will ensure it is night time so I can capture the beauty of London and the snaking Thames when the lights are on and city truly comes alive with colour.

The following are three (3) pictures I took to share with you and hope you enjoy them and feel free to LIKE and comment on your favourite(s):
