Waiting for Admittance
8 Kasım 2016, İngiltere ⋅ ☀️ 41 °F
I'm glad we made it to Sky Garden early in the day. When we arrived we were able to go right up to the observation deck but this is what it looked like when we got back down. I'm thinking that the wait to see Sky Garden is maybe around an hour now. I guess that we picked a lucky time of day to visit.
When we went out to the street, I turned on my Pokemon Go and caught my first Mr Mime! This Pokemon is exclusive to Europe so I'm glad that I caught him. I'm hoping to catch a few more of him too. If the game ever upgrades and allows trading, I can give Mr Mime to people back home. I'm sure they would love getting a bit closer to completing their Pokedex.Okumaya devam et

Enjoying a Cuppa
8 Kasım 2016, İngiltere ⋅ ☀️ 39 °F
Sky Garden is not just a fancy name. There really is a big garden up there. Well, more like an aboretum since it was mostly trees and very big plants. We walked through it, seeing the view from all sides of the building while Kathy enjoyed a cup of tea.Okumaya devam et

Enjoy the View
8 Kasım 2016, İngiltere ⋅ ☀️ 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.Okumaya devam et

Big City
8 Kasım 2016, İngiltere ⋅ ☀️ 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!Okumaya devam et

Sky Garden
8 Kasım 2016, İngiltere ⋅ ☀️ 39 °F
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!Okumaya devam et

Shutterbug
8 Kasım 2016, İngiltere ⋅ ☀️ 39 °F
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.Okumaya devam et

What a View!
8 Kasım 2016, İngiltere ⋅ ⛅ 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.Okumaya devam et

The Gherkin
8 Kasım 2016, İngiltere ⋅ ⛅ 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.Okumaya devam et

Smile!
8 Kasım 2016, İngiltere ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
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!Okumaya devam et

The Shard
8 Kasım 2016, İngiltere ⋅ ⛅ 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.Okumaya devam et
