London Eye Machinery, Anglophile Friday

I thought I'd post the London Eye from a different perspective. I love these machinery shots. I hope you'll enjoy them.

View of Charing Cross Station

View of Palace of Westminster

Look hard, and you can see Buckingham Palace in the center of the photo

and in case you've forgotten what the EYE actually looks like from the ground:

One revolution per 30 minutes. Amazing views!

Worth the money at least once.

P.S.  Okay, I'm seeing a trend here in the comments. lol  This is NOT scary. The Eye moves so slowly that it never has to stop, even for you to easily step aboard. It CREEPS (maybe I should choose a different word here?) through the air. Feels like you're standing in a glass living room, but with amazing views. And only one pod has ever come loose and crashed to the ground, killing everyone aboard. JUST KIDDING!  It's a wonderful experience.

Anglophile Friday - London

If I were in London this week and next, you would find me here, far from Olympic Park.

Imperial War Museum

Victoria Station

Buckingham Palace

Palace of Westminster

London Eye

Victoria & Albert Museum

Royal Albert Hall

Churchill's Cabinet War Rooms

10 Downing Street

St. Martin-in-the-Field

National Gallery

National Portrait Gallery

Hyde Park

Westminster Abbey

Okay, maybe not 10 Downing Street. I'll take the Virtual Tour instead.

And, of course, there are so many interesting places in between!

Trafalgar Square with St. Martin's in the background

Boudicca 

near Westminster Pier

Buckingham Palace

Charing Cross Station

This is actually a picture I borrowed from Joe. He spent five days in London and didn't turn off the date stamp on his camera. :-((((   So yes, I know the cloning job didn't work so well. I know it's difficult to ignore, but at least you can see Charing Cross Station, the bridge, the boats, and the amazing River Thames.
