I would also bring back souvenirs for my special friends -- subtle hint!<br /><br />By the way, Happy Birthday!

I didn't know it was the law but certainly felt like the cars came first. Pretty perilous crossing a street anywhere that doesn't have a green pedestrian crossing sign.<br /><br />That's awful about your friend's daughter.Sybilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13944601364218561984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221281884226879638.post-81546717602629568852017-03-17T08:29:18.572-03:002017-03-17T08:29:18.572-03:00I really did too much but am so glad I did. lolI really did too much but am so glad I did. lolSybilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13944601364218561984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221281884226879638.post-21321024827912593572017-03-17T08:28:46.831-03:002017-03-17T08:28:46.831-03:00I went on the "Eye" in 2008.

One revolution takes 30 minutes. It's expensive but I think you should do it ONCE. The view is marvellous. If you don't go on it then go to the 10th floor of the Tate Modern for a rather super view.Sybilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13944601364218561984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221281884226879638.post-7958417006558284612017-03-17T07:32:47.813-03:002017-03-17T07:32:47.813-03:00One would be ignoring the "Look Right / Look ...One would be ignoring the "Look Right / Look Left" signs at her own peril. My friend's daughter got hit by a car there, back in the 1990s, and broke her hip and leg. Wonder if they had those reminders painted on the street there back then. Not a good way to end a vacation.<br /><br />Sounds like you had a wonderful time on your whirlwind trip!

I'm kind of a scaredy cat about it though.<br /><br />Looking forward to more photos of your trip!Debra She Who Seekshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01845703092794695023noreply@blogger.com
