so here we are...
and what a wonderful place to be
everything i expected and hoped for and then some
tower big ben
if you read my post announcing this trip then you would remember me mentioning big ben
it was a timex moment when we first laid eyes on it
ten minutes to two...
a short time later we heard it mark the time - so cool
we spent part of sunday evening attending an organ recital in westminster abbey
the walk out was as awe-inspiring as the music... so very old... so very beautiful
this gate in hyde park was striking in it's design
everywhere I cast my eyes there was something magical to see - it was like landing in my very own mary poppins movie...
hyde park was a little different than I expected - beautifully green, big trees, wilder areas
a park for people to be in, move through and enjoy
a place to sit
also on my list was trafalger square
to see lord nelson's lions of stone
dreams coming true
and finally, the street I lived on in london... if only for a short time, it was mine
