Sunday, June 2, 2018:
Well, there it was, the
famous London Eye. Paula gathered up her courage and said, "Let's go." |
 |
|
The gondolas were being
loaded with about 20 people each. |
 |
|
Then up they went.
Looking down was a bit difficult for Paula. |
 |
|
Everyone wanted to take
photos of the ride. |
 |
|
The River Thames and
and the Hungerford Bridge were clearly visible from half way up on the Eye. |
 |
|
It was an amazing site
for everyone. |
 |
|
The Thames from near
the top. Red tour busses could be seen on the Westminster Bridge. |
 |
|
It was a mere 443 feet to the top where they posed for a photo.
Nothing to it! |
 |
 |
|
There are some
rubber high-speed tour boats on the River Thames down below. Others preferred Kayaks that day. Each to his own. |
 |
|
Then it was over. Paula was happy she made it back to the ground
safely. |
 |
|
It was time for dinner at a local pub to talk over the exploits of the
day. |
 |
| Then it was back to St. Ermin's Autograph Collection Hotel for the night. |
Quote of the day:
A very full day. Mark
