London - Part 2

 When I think of London, these are two very iconic images that come to mind.

The double-decker red bus and the cabbie.

 

You even have your choice of colors -

black or red. 
(Bud pointed out that there all sorts of colors for cabs -
I know that but I only took a picture of a red and black one!)

I loved the architecture in London.

This was across the street from our hotel The Gore.

I was a little surprised to find this man.

It was 9:30 a.m. along Hyde Park Avenue (Street? Place?)

Hyde Park has some very expensive, posh buildings.

I guess it is a reminder that not all people have the same good fortune.

 

This is how I toured London.  2nd story.

It was great . . . and I got rained on and froze!

Still I wouldn't go lower because you just can't get a good view from there.

The sign speaks for itself!

Here was a long queue (line) of people waiting for the doors to open -

at Madame Tussauds Wax Museum.

I didn't see it but I would love to go back someday and have a look.

I fell in love with London.  

Its just a breathtaking place -

beautiful buildings, historic places, theater, arts, etc.

I definitely want to tour some more.

Stay tuned for more . . .
