Cruising the Thames

The London Pass I bought included the use of a hop on/off river cruise on the Thames. I decided to use it instead of the underground to get to the Tower Bridge. It was better than I expected with the boatman who gave the commentary being witty and interesting so I stayed on to the end stop of Greenwich. I hopped off for a wander around and bought a lovely coffee from a cart that also sold alcohol!

It was fascinating to see all the buildings that had been converted from warehouses into apartments. They all looked very high end and according to the guide most London workers cannot afford to live in them. A new apartment building called "Legoland" by the locals was designed to give every apartment a river view.もっと詳しく
