Tired of me yet? I can't stop photographing phone booths. This collection resembles tin soldiers all in a row.
Today another item ticked off the list; a double-decker bus ride. We rode to Covent Garden because on prior visits many years ago, it was a favorite day trip. However, it was so crowded and had changed so much that I was enormously let down. On the other hand, strolling and browsing the surrounding area was a happy thing to do, and as always with camera in hand. I managed to preserve a few visual snippets of our day.
This was a less congested street actually. I'm not a good street photographer and I'm not comfortable in crowds. I am a good Starbucks spotter though and finally I managed to get a London coffee mug.
Predictably jammed.
Epitome of refinement though above my pay grade.
Notice if you will the mannequins in the upper windows! They look bedraggled.
A refreshing pause.
Ubiquitous.
I need to pack now for our check-out tomorrow. Activities on the docket include a Winston Churchill tour via private car with scholarly guide. And then back to Oxford for a more in depth explore.
Best British-English moment today~ I actually heard a shopkeeper explain to her colleague that she was rearranging "bits and bobs" in the shop window. Love!

....sigh...I had similar feelings when first arriving in Florence. So MANY people. I wonder if there is an off season anywhere anymore.
ReplyDeletePS not bored even the littlest.
