Congratulations, Will and Kate!
Aah, I remember last November. I made plans to spend my vacation at home, but God had other plans
A good friend of mine called me to invite me to go and spend a few days in England. So, off to London I went.
This was not my first time in London but I remember I squealed with delight.
Not only was I going to visit one of the most magnificent cities in the world, but I was also going to meet with my good friend and spend as much time with him as I possibly could.
O here are a few London photographs, if you'd like to see.
The River Thames flows through southern England. It is so fascinating at dawn.
The Victoria Memorial is a memorial to Queen Victoria. This sculpture stands in the centre of the Queen's Gardens in front of Buckingham Palace.
Buckingham Palace.
St. James's Park in Westminster, central London; the oldest of the Royal Parks of London. The park has a small lake, with two islands.
So I found myself in London and I loved it; it was warm and sunny.
I spent about fifteen days or so visiting all of my favourite spots and sights; seriously, what could be better than fifteen days in London with your good friend.
It was the best thing ever!
Overall the journey was totally fascinating.
Cheers, my darlings! hope you have a delightful, amorous weekend! xx
More London photographs here and here .

London seems a long, long way away when you're downunder here in OZ like me! But those pix sure make it look appealing!!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend!! Yeah, it's already Friday night here ...
You captured the City wonderfully my friend.
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed your stay in the UK.
your photos are stunning as always dear friend.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend
Well, Betty, the whole world was watching some of the scenes from your pictures, today. I see this as a tribute to the royal wedding.
ReplyDeleteWoohoo.
Joy always,
Susan
thanks for sharing those lovely views so i don't have to watch any of the footage of 'the' wedding today. :)
ReplyDeleteAt the risk of offending other European visitors to my blog, I think London is the penultimate of the European cities that I have seen. Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
ReplyDeleteand kate and will had a warm sunny day like yours to get married. i watched it all and loved every minute of the pomp and circumstance. especially the horse drawn carriage and the calvary
ReplyDeleteYou're so lucky to be able to travel like that. I hope to get there one day.

Would love to see it, but it's so far away and involves long distance flying. That rules me out. Lovely pics.
ReplyDeleteHi Betty, Too bad you couldn't be in London today to see the Royal Wedding... Kate's dress was gorgeous...
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures from a beautiful place... I'd love to go to London someday... I want to see Westminster Abbey. (I have a thing for the big beautiful churches and cathedrals.)
Thanks for sharing your wonderful visit.
Hugs,
Betsy
Fantastic timing of your gorgeous London pictures. I enjoyed each and every one!
ReplyDeleteI was fortunate enough to spend several days in London several years ago, and your photos brought back many memories. Thanks for sharing your visit with us.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful shots, and it's so relieving to see photos of London without the newlywed royal couple! Thanks, Betty.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend, friend.

ReplyDeletePero que buenas son las fotos que nos has dejado. Como siempre un placer haberme pasado por tu espacio.
ReplyDeleteSaludos y un abrazo.
Love your visit to London. You have a very interesting camera eye.
ReplyDeleteI am not so excited about this weeding.Many millions of euros spent to this wedding and London nowadays has difficult economic times.There are much important issues than this.
ReplyDeleteAnyway,London is a nice country.Unfortunately,I haven't been there yet.This visit deserves!It seems you had a nice time there!Have a relaxing weekend.
I;llbe back there in August - can't wait. Have a great weekend, Betty
ReplyDeleteWhat great shots of London. I don't usually visit the city when I'm in the UK - but perhaps I should...
ReplyDeleteI've never been to London. Your beautiful photos really make me want to go! Hope you are having a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteLove the photos! I watched the wedding and that it was wonderful!

Have a great weekend, Betty! Very beautiful pics. A big day for the media for the big wedding!
ReplyDeleteI think you should visit london again and spend time with some of your blogger friends ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the pictures. Beautiful. Hope to get there some day. It's on the bucket list
ReplyDeleteOh wow, what an exciting trip! You should do it again;-)) Hugs from Luzia.
ReplyDeleteLondon has got to have some of the world's best architecture and you've captured it so well. Sounds like you had a great time. :)
ReplyDeleteI think of all the hoopla over the wedding of the decade, I really really liked Pippa's gowns best! Both for the wedding AND the after ceremony party.
ReplyDeleteWhat a treasure filled post...all are super great!! Very enjoyable today. Very much so.
Thanks for stopping by yesterday. Here's my link for today if you'd care to stop by and say 'howdy'!!

lovely! I want to visit London one day!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pictures, it was like taking a tour of London, I haven't been there in about 10 years! We watched the wedding here on TV through Sky Italia, so impressive! I loved the dress Kate wore, and Pippa's one was splendid. I found you through my friend rednomadoz and I'm following you from Trapani, Sicily. You would find lots of places to photograph here, that's for sure:) starting with the gorgeous view from Mount Erice.
ReplyDeleteLondon is such a wonderful cit. I think many of us felt like we were there this weekend. :))
ReplyDeleteLove your Superior Snaps! London IS a lovely city, isn't it? Don't think I'd want to be in town for all the royal wedding hubbub, though. BTW, you and I have something in common...I'm featuring Wills and Kate today, too!!
ReplyDeleteHi Betty, thanks for the good London memories (though have to say I've heard enough about the $30mill wedding--my partner was up at 1 in the a.m. to see it + constant coverage for the next two days...).
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and serene shots of a world city, and the background for so much clamor and "news".
ReplyDeleteLondon and its beautiful spots.
ReplyDeleteI can imagine your enthusiasm being there!!
Send you my warm hugs from Athens..
Beautiful shots of London, Betty - must have been quite the trip !
ReplyDeleteNever been there myself, but it's on my bucket list ;-)
Stunning photography. Thank you for taking us on your trip;-)
ReplyDeleteI've always wanted to go!
ReplyDeleteYou take the best photos!
