Bank Holiday

Where do I start? London is so beautiful! Definitely a postcard city... and the weather cleared up for most of the afternoon allowing us to explore. We had yum cha (or Dim Sum as it is called in UK and I think the rest of the world except Australia) with Bern's colleagues. I will let the pictures do the talking, and these pics definitely do not do London justice.

Chinatown, a must in every city I guess.

Leicester Square


Trafalgar Square


The Queen's Gardens at Buckingham palace


Spring tulips


Big Ben


The Eye on the Thames


A Subway Mascot! Anthony, this one's for you!


The tower bridge at night

Today, I will be out and about with a list of things to do, one of itis to get myself a Lebara mobile phone plan! Cheap for international calls, I've been told....
