London - last day!
9 Temmuz 2023, İngiltere ⋅ ☁️ 63 °F
Our last day of adventure was, indeed, excellent. We started early with a big traditional (mostly - mine was a vegetarian version) English breakfast at a diner, and then Dan and Samantha skillfully led us through train and tube connections to get us to the Tate Britain Museum. I actually wasn’t familiar with this museum before, but we enjoyed seeing some of this specifically British collection, which includes a huge number of Turner paintings. Then we took a boat down the Thames with our personal tour guides; fortunately this worked out better for us than for the people on all of those Turner ships! We alit at the Tower Bridge and then walked around the perimeter of the London Tower. Very interesting! We need to make time for a tour on our next visit. After a coffee, we took a double-decker bus to the very Brooklyn-esque neighborhood (neighbourhood, I suppose) of Dalston for an amazing lunch that Neal and I would NEVER have found on our own. Dalston is one of those areas that’s in the process being gentrified. We walked down a tiny side street to an area behind what were once warehouses; this area now houses a brewery, a bakery, and a restaurant called Acme Fire Cult with a tiny outdoor kitchen that creates delicious, seasonal dishes to share. We took the bus to gawk at St. Paul’s Cathedral; pictures can’t show how massive this church is! Another place to tour next time. After that we took various buses, trains, and the tube back to Dan and Samantha’s place in West London, where we went to their other favorite local pub and then watched parts of Glastonbury festival while enjoying wine and cheese. What a perfect way to end this epic trip.

1. Inside the “Tate Brit”
2. Tower Bridge selfie!
3. Tower of London
4. No idea what’s going on here. Fascinating people-watching in London!
5. Random building with pig
6. Menu from Acme Fire Cult
7. Memorial for the Fire of London
8. Queen Anne in front of St. Paul’s (photo credit Neal)
9. The path we took to the pub. Very restful after the bustle of central London
10. The Fox - the final pub of the tripOkumaya devam et

Gezgin I too was in disbelief at the size of St Paul's. It's like our capitol buildings or larger! The Queen was lying in state the day we were there last September so it was heavily guarded. We didn't get in of course.

Sista dagen i London och sista dagen för Astrid och Nelly. Vi åkte in till stan och åt brunch på ett mysigt ställe. Det tog jättelångt tid men det var värt det ändå. Fick massa olika gott! Efter det gick vi en sväng till London bridge och då behövde Astrid och Nelly åka mot flygplatsen, vi sa hejdå till dem. 😪 Jag och Frida skulle ta ett tåg vid 20 så hade lite timmar kvar där. Vi gick över London bridge och satte oss på ett kaffe och fixa med lite grejer. Sen tog vi oss mot tågstationen i god tid denna gången eftersom det var säkerhetskontroll här med. Vi kom fram till Paris sent men hade lyckats hitta ett hostel som hade sen incheckning så vi var där runt 00:30. Det var den dagen🐣🎉Okumaya devam et

Tate Britain
25 Mayıs 2023, İngiltere ⋅ ☀️ 16 °C
We visited the Tate Britain gallery this morning. Mostly to see the Turner gallery. On his death Turner donated an astounding 30,000 items to the Nation. Were they all paintings? Maybe they included items like sketch books, paint brushes and pallets, etc.

I didn't find the Turner I wanted, it must be somewhere else. They also had some Henry Moore sculptures. Plus some works I don't understand...I must be old.Okumaya devam et

Gezgin Robert you have again visited significant sites. I am comfortable with your comments … they are ones I share and why I’ve hesitated at visiting. Genuine Thanks 🤞

At least London
18 Eylül 2023, İngiltere ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C
London hat uns erschlagen! Nach den beschaulichen Orten an der Westküste und im Südwesten geht es hier ganz anders zu. Menschenmassen wälzen sich durch die Stadt, besonders an den touristischen Highlights Londons. Wir natürlich auch...das gestrige Highlight war die Tate Modern. Da hat uns besonders das Gebäude, ein ehemaliges Ölkraftwerk von riesigen Dimensionen interessiert. Die Kunst auch, aber die Fülle und die darin befindlichen Menschenmassen erschlägt uns.
Heute haben wir noch die Tate Gallery besichtigt, da wir uns die Turner- Sammlung ansehen wollten. Auch da, eine unendliche Fülle an Kunst! Zum Glück ging es heute entspannter zu.
London East-End aus der Luft - das haben wir mit einer Seilbahn über die Themse gemacht. Ganz nett, aber auch teuer, wie vieles hier. Um zu sparen wollten wir nach Greenwich laufen. Aber der Weg durch Industrieviertel war ätzend. Also auf in den Bus - dummerweise in die falsche Richtung! Tja, so haben wir Greenwich nicht gesehen. Aber wir haben ja Amélies Bilder😊 davon.
Zum Schluss noch den Konsumtempel Harrods. Du meine Güte! Es strotzt vor Luxus. Wir haben nur geschaut😉Okumaya devam et

The hotel I chose in London was actually more of a traditional bed and breakfast in a beautiful old converted terrace house. It was perfectly located for me within 20 minutes walk of Trafalger square or an easy bus ride. The surrounding area was lovely with the occasional little square with markets or gardens. So rewarding to walk around places if you can. You can even stop for a drink in an old English pub as a bonus!

As you can see from my London photos I was blessed with lovely spring weather with only the occasional cloudy spell. Better than the Wellington summer we just didn't have!Okumaya devam et

Janice Husband You've just got to love all the history of the place...still evident in the many characterful buildings.

Die letzten Meter führten an der Themse entlang durch die Victoria Tower Gardens und schließlich über den Fluss zum Hotel. Das waren heute schon mal reichlich Kilometer, nicht schlecht für den Anfang!
