I wish school was on the weekends here! It is so crowded everywhere on the weekends, but we decided to go do touristy things anyways yesterday...
Wall to wall people on Portobello Road in Notting Hill. Every Saturday there is a huge market where venders on the street sell antiques and food.
Some very old classic books.
Look at those old cameras!
We are pros at public transportation now!
The original London Wall behind us!
Everything is small here!
One of the earliest electrically driven public clocks. This one was installed in 1852 and it always shows the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). This is a 24 hour clock so the hour hand marks noon at XII at the bottom of the dial and midnight (0) at the top of the dial. The time shown is accurate to 0.5 of a second.
The Prime Meridian - standing on both the East and West Hemispheres at the same time!
We saw a performance, called Voala, at the Royal Artillery Square near Greenwich. Imagine sky-diving combined with water ballet and thats what it was!
They were attached to a crane that took them soooo high!
Voala looks spectacular-almost like jellyfish floating in the ocean depths!
