On Top of London
8. marraskuuta 2016, Englanti ⋅ ⛅ 36 °F
Sky Garden, an observatory in the Walkie Talkie building was the first touristy thing that we did in London and I'm so glad we got to see it. Sky Garden is free to visit, but you need to make reservations to get in. I'm glad we made plans to visit Sky Garden before we got to London. The views were amazing! I'm really glad that we came. There are other observation towers but they are all kind of expensive. Sky Garden was a good choice for us.Lue lisää

We saw so much of London from Sky Garden. I couldn't believe that it's free to come here! Every other observation tower that I've ever heard of charges so much money just to get a view of the city. Even here in New York, the Empire State Building and Top of the Rock are so expensive to visit. Yes, the view is breathtaking, but you're definitely going to pay a price for it. I'm really happy that we learned about Sky Garden. It's not very difficult to get the reservation to come here either. It may be different during the summer vacation time though. I'm very happy we came here.Lue lisää

The Shard
8. marraskuuta 2016, Englanti ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
The Shard is one of the few buildings in the London skyline that I know of. We got a very good view of it from Sky Garden. The Shard also has an observation deck but, unlike Sky Garden, it's not free. A trip to the top of the Shard will set you back 27 for advanced bookings or 32 for walk up tickets. I think that's kind of expensive.Lue lisää

Kathy's been talking a lot of selfie photos on this trip. That's one aspect of photography I've never really had much success at. I'm never quite sure what part of the camera to look at and I always come out looking nervous and uneasy. Once in a while I get a passable shot but it's rare. Kathy always seems to look great in pictures though. She's so photogenic, not to mention very beautiful and sexy! I'll never stop loving her!Lue lisää

The Gherkin
8. marraskuuta 2016, Englanti ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
The Gherkin is another British skyscraper that I know about. I have no idea what the name is supposed to mean but it sounds Indian to me. I first learned about this building from the game SimCity. This is one of the landmark buildings you can get in the game but I never thought it was a real place until I started researching London for our trip. Surprisingly, for such a unique building, it's used for office space only and the general public is not allowed inside. There is no observation deck either.Lue lisää

What a View!
8. marraskuuta 2016, Englanti ⋅ ⛅ 39 °F
The view from Sky Garden was absolutely breathtaking! I'm surprised that this place is not promoted a lot more in all the tourist sites about London. I only found it mentioned on one site, almost as an afterthought. I'm really glad that I decided to find out more about it.Lue lisää

Kathy was taking a lot of pictures in Sky Garden. I like seeing her showing some interest in photography. I don't think she'll ever start to use a DSLR but I'm hoping. I remember her being quite good at taking pictures. When we went on our very first trip together, to Walt Disney World, both of us were using small point and shoot cameras and I thought her pictures were better than mine. She has a good eye for photos and can compose a shot very well. I don't know why she didn't pursue it more. I wish she would have. It would be so nice to go out shooting together.Lue lisää

Sky Garden

Sky Garden is not just a meaningless name. There really is a beautiful garden up here. Not just in one section of the floor but all around us. All the foliage, combined with the spectacular views, makes this such a beautiful place to visit!Lue lisää

Big City
8. marraskuuta 2016, Englanti ⋅ ☀️ 39 °F
I really love the view of London from the top of Sky Garden. The mix of old and new architecture is amazing to see. One thing that really surprised me was how much construction is going on in London. From this high up, I can see those big red cranes everywhere. That big domed building in the center of everything is St. Paul's Cathedral. It was featured in the movie "Mary Poppins" for the Feed the Birds song. I'd love to visit this church!Lue lisää

Enjoy the View
8. marraskuuta 2016, Englanti ⋅ ☀️ 39 °F
We had a great time at Sky Garden. I'm surprised that it's not a lot more crowded here, especially considering that it's free to visit! I just wish we knew more of London's famous and iconic buildings so we knew what places we were seeing. There were some guides on the windows telling you what some of the buildings are but, for the most part, we couldn't even find them.Lue lisää
