LONDN EYE




Hi Guys,

Last night we went for a "flight" on the famous London Eye. It had been a lovely sunny day and ended up being a clear night of which there haven't been many so we thought we'd make the most of the good weather. We got the train in at a about 5pm so it was dark when we went on the ferris wheel. We wanted to go at night to see all the lights and it was certainly worth it, what a beautiful view of the city we had. You go up in a gondola type thing which is very spacious. You can walk around in it and it fits quite a few people. It takes half an hour to go all the way round. We took lots of phots and i've attatched a few. It was a wonderful view of Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament. They were staright across on the opposite side of the River Thames to the London Eye.


Afer our ride we went a few stations further back on the tube to try and find what they say in my book is one of the last original english pubs in West End. Anyway, after walking around in circles looking very touristy with our map...we couldn't find it! We went to another nice place for dinner instead cause by this stime we were starving. It's amazing how much busier the city is late mid-week compared to home!
