We went to London for the day yesterday. Mary organised for us (Eleanor, her and me) to go on the London Eye. After a rainy week we were really pleased when the sun broke through and we had a marvellous "flight" with great views across the city. It was fascinating how the perspective changed and buildings and other features appeared as we rose higher.
We strolled along the South Bank to an old favourite: Tate Modern. Mary and I spent an hour looking and an hour drinking tea in the cafe, which is about the right mix (though Eleanor had the energy to keep looking longer).
We crossed to St Paul's via the Millennium Bridge and then down to Covent Garden (taking in the Old Bailey on a rather circuitous route).
We had a very pleasant meal in Bella Italia before heading back to Liverpool Street and returned home tired but happy.
No slouching, stand up straight...
