jour 23

Today is the last day for the Lynch in London.  They went to Tower of London.
 
It was a visit they all enjoyed.  They discovered a new point of view to see London from above.

For my part, a friend gave me a mission: take a picture of Sherlock Holmes' house on Baker Street
So I went there. I did not enter, since I had already visited on a previous trip.  But I took pictures.
  
As I was very near Regent Park, I went for a stroll.  It was so peaceful walking in the park this morning.  You just have to do a few steps in a park and already you feel away from the buzz of the city.  
I got back on the Tube to Charing Cross to take a picture of Sherlock Holmes pub.  It is significant for me because Marcel asked me in marriage for the second time at this place in 2010.  
Then it was time for coffee break that I took in a beautiful park called : Victoria Embankment.
On my way back, as the bus passed in front Tate Britain, I decided to get down there.  I have never been to Tate Britain before.  It is a museum dedicated to British art from 1500 to the present.  I visited only a few rooms among one called Art Now where emerging artists exhibit their works.  I was impress by the variety of art in the museum.  
  

After the visit, I went to to the grocery and back home for a late lunch on my cute little terrace. 


We said goodbye with the promise  to keep in touch for the rest of the trip.  It was a pleasure to have them with me in London.  Elise and Jane are so nice!
