I write this blog today, as London and the rest of the UK is being beseiged by snow! My sister was supposed to fly into Poole today, but after 8 hours at the airport, had to drive back home in a blizzard and try again for tomorrow. We here in Seattle can appreciate how “not snow ready” a place can be! I only wish I was there in London to take photographs in the snow!
Anyways, I thought I’d post this photograph of The “London Eye”, London’s most paid-for tourist destination, attracting over 3.5 million visitors a year. Each caspule can weighs ten tons! I did not take the ride…prefered to photograph from below!
I rode this “tourist destination” three years ago and what an awesome
experience!! You can see ALL over London. We were on the ride at dusk
and the sunset was beautiful from up high. We watched London light up
for the night. I’d do it again in a heartbeat!!
I’ve lived in London all my life and still like going on the London Eye. I’ve been four or five times now and it always feels like a treat.
