We’ve had a beautiful day! We’ve been tourists in London, visiting the amazing Cutty Sark and walking around Greenwich so I’m going to tell the story with photos – many more than 3 beautiful things today! Please click on any photo for an enlargement.
The Cutty Sark
- The very beautiful keel
The Cutty Sark was brought to Falmouth 1922 in and rescued by the Dowman family
From The Falmouth Times 1922 Catharine Dowman was a Suffragette, like my Great Granny!
Beautiful treads on the steps
They kept pigs on board for fresh meat!
Patched wood
- One Tree Hill, a viewpoint used by many artists including Turner
Squirrel in Greenwich Gardens
- A Triffid perhaps?
Ship in a Bottle at The National Maritime Museum
We’ve gone through The Greenwich Foot Tunnel (not beautiful but very efficient) to see this view of Greenwich from Island Gardens on the North of the river
Riding The Docklands Light Railway was amazing! Do you know, the trains have no drivers!!
