Pancake Fish
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ 🌙 37 °F
When Kathy came out of the bakery, she not only got herself a couple of buns but she had a bag of these baby pancakes for me. I love to get this snack whenever we go to Chinatown in New York. TheyЧитать далее
The Light Lounge
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ 🌫 37 °F
This is another interesting looking bar that we saw. I didn't see any signs or proclamation of awards here so I guess it's not as good as the Ku Bar that we saw earlier. Honestly, I can't see theЧитать далее
Slug and Lettuce
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ 🌫 37 °F
Here's another interesting place we found while wandering around. For some reason, I just can't get excited to eat at a place called the Slug and Lettuce. I can only imagine what their menu would beЧитать далее
The Little Sweet Shop

So there, I am, in London, formerly Londinium, at about 3 o'clock in the morning, looking for one thousand brown M&Ms to fill a brandy glass, or Ozzy wouldn't go on stage that night. So, Jeff BeckЧитать далее
How did we get here?
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ 🌫 37 °F
After some more wandering around, we found ourselves to be somewhere in the back of London's theater district. I always love exploring areas like this but I don't think that this is one of the partsЧитать далее
Behind the Theaters
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
We're still here behind the theaters and this area is looking better and better. I'm really hoping that I'll be able to find this spot again later. It's going to be difficult though. I have no ideaЧитать далее
The Bookseller
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
Unlike the big book stores like Barnes and Noble here in the United States, this seems to be what the typical book store in London looks like. I really like this sort of store. It looks so much moreЧитать далее
We're in London!

The iconic red phone booths? Check! The red double decker buses? Check! Now I really know that we're in London!
Trafalgar Square 29
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
I'm really taken with these red buses! I think probably because it's something so different from what we have back home. I remember feeling the same way about the streetcars in New Orleans and theЧитать далее
Garrick Theater
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
The theatres here in London are so beautiful! I'd really like for us to see a play while we're here. Both of us would like to see something but the question is what should we see? There are so manyЧитать далее
Feeling Lucky?
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
We were almost back to the hotel by now. I remembered this big casino right across from our hotel, on the other side of the park. This building doesn't really make think of a casino. I would haveЧитать далее
Back Home Again!
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ 🌙 37 °F
Before long we made it back to our hotel again. We had a great time wandering around and, surprisingly, we never got lost even though it was our first time in London. Kathy was so exhausted and justЧитать далее
The Lineup
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ 🌙 36 °F
Tripod in hand, I went off in the London night, hoping to get some good shots of this fantastic city. I headed back to Chinatown since it was only a few blocks away and I was sort of familiar with theЧитать далее
Back to Chinatown
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ 🌙 36 °F
I got back to Chinatown very quickly since it was so close to our hotel and I remembered the way. I'm surprised by how much this area has emptied out. Do most British people go to sleep early, orЧитать далее
Chinatown by Night
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ 🌙 36 °F
It was great being able to shoot London's streets with almost nobody around. I'm really glad that I came out tonight! This big gate is fantastic! Most of the Chinatowns I've been to have somethingЧитать далее
More Gates
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ 🌙 36 °F
While we don't have any gates in New York, London has several. I don't know why New York hasn't looked into putting at least one these monuments up. They are real eye-catching and will attract bothЧитать далее
Chinatown?
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ 🌙 36 °F
Not every part of Chinatown here looks overly Chinese. I like how the neighborhood looks but I was expecting a lot more Chinese inspired architecture and the Chinese writing everywhere. AlthoughЧитать далее
On Gerrard Street
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ 🌙 36 °F
If you can't find good food here then you're not really trying. Most Chinatowns have good food but the restaurants here look fantastic! I can't wait for us to try eating at some of these places.

The Lion Dancer

If I hadn't been looking up I would have completely miss this detail of Chinatown. This was mounted on the side of a building up near the roof. It looks as if one of the Chinese New Year Lion DancersЧитать далее
Les Miserables
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ ⛅ 36 °F
Les Miserables is my favorite musical of all time. Miss Saigon is a very close second. I always enjoy musicals though. I can't think of a single one that I didn't like. When we see a show here, IЧитать далее

Ghosts in the Alley
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ ⛅ 36 °F
This is one of the back alleys of Chinatown. The original picture was so dark you could hardly see anything, even though a tripod was used. After the processing was finished, it looks like a sceneЧитать далее
Gerrard Street
7 ноября 2016 г., Англия ⋅ ⛅ 36 °F
Gerrard Street seems to be one of the main streets running through London's Chinatown. While it's not as big or as crowded as New York's Chinatown, it's certainly a lot more colorful.
