365 Challenge Days 55-59: 15-19 April 2010: London Trip

Bit of a long break between posts this time because we’ve been away in London celebrating one of Marion’s significant birthdays. But first up a sunset shot from the 15th April. Can’t honestly say that it looked dramatically different from a lot of Solway sunsets – so much for volcanic ash.

On the 16th we spent quite a bit of time travelling to London to be met by our son – who made a very good job of being our unofficial guide to London for the weekend. In case you’re reading this – thanks Ashley

Saturday (17th) we did the sights before going to see Sister Act at the Palladium. It was an absolutely gorgeous day (got a sunburnt bald patch to prove it). Could have chosen any number of shots of London, but I preferred this one of all of us pretending it’s summer in Regents Park. Seems to catch the spirit of the day rather well:

Sunday morning (18th) we visited the rather fancy Westfield Shopping Centre in Shepherds Bush. Sadly it didn’t open ‘til mid-day so we were restricted to window shopping and an excellent Mexican meal on the terrace. Lots of piccies to choose from, but thought this one of Charlie’s Angels fitted the bill:

Monday 19th and back home again – where has the warmth gone – it’s freezing. Took this view towards some of the local villages at sunset during our evening constitutional:

And that’s me back up-to-date again. Looking forward to getting into the two-hundreds – not long now.
