The View........

 .....of Southwark Cathedral and Borough Market from the Shard today! One of many sites we saw and marvelled at and spent several hours looking at from the 69th floor of this amazing building. The view on the horizon wasn't so good but there really was so much that could be clearly seen.

We later walked round the market...a favourite place, before going walking along South Bank where there was a wonderful Food Festival going on. Fantastic atmosphere with loud music and crowds of happy people!

We enjoyed dinner in the restaurant at The National Portrait Gallery. Another wonderful view!  We stopped first to listen to 'The Beatles' sing from the balcony of The Garrick Theatre where the show Let it Be is now playing. More happy, holidaying crowds dancing in the streets!

A special day to be in London! We did make a detour to Buckingham Palace to see the announcement of the birth of the new little princess but the crowds were l o n g and we had a time to keep to. 

.....I think my extra picture might tell you, I was celebrating too!
