St Paul's Cathedral

Another day in London and some more guest adventurers join us......
This time it was our friends Liz and Dipesh.

We visited St. Paul's Cathedral 1st and managed to get 1 interior snap off before the security man came and told Andrew off, as there is no photography allowed inside the Cathedral.

The shots across London were kindly taken by Liz and Dipesh, as Andrew and Shivani were too scared of heights to go any higher than The Whispering Gallery. We did have fun in The Gallery though, as you can talk to the wall one side and the other person can hear you the other side of the wall. Something to do with the acoustics how the sound travels, apparently?!




The V&A

Hi Guys, long time no speak.
Thanks for logging on.
We continued our tour of London, this time joined by Bhavini - Shivani's Brother's Wife, who you can see in the picture with Andrew.
We visited The Victoria & Albert Museum, which was fascinating and far too big to see in one day, although we did try.
The Museum building is as much a work of art as the stuff inside. You can even see authentic World War II damage on the outside!

The Museum itself is dedicated to arts and crafts through the ages, with historical and modern pieces. Check out the funky chandelier in the entrance hallway.....
