On walking down Regent Street I spotted these flags flying in a side street
Statue of Eros in Piccadilly Circus
Buses flying around everywhere
Beautiful architecture
More flags flying
Admiralty Arch
Statue of Admiral Nelson perched on his column
Working at Horse Guards Parade

Downing Street very protected
The Cenotaph
Big Ben
Westminster Abbey
St Margaret's Church is situated in the grounds of Westminster Abbey
I heard a plane overhead and turned the camera skywards
No didn't manage to get that then.
Glancing back again to Big Ben - I love it
Lovely statues at Parliament Square
Remembering Jo Cox
Another glance back at Big Ben
I heard another plane - nope missed it again!!
London Eye in the background
I love these dotted all around the streets as you walk around
Chris Frome and his team being interviewed just before their start of

Cyclist being ushered out of the finish
Buckingham Palace
Standing to attention
We went on around Buckingham Palace to walk up the side road and I spotted this
on the wall - you wouldn't ever get over those walls!
We stopped and chatted to a lady who had ridden Ride London and this is the medal
she won for doing the 100 mile ride. The front side said the date and distance and
the reverse side showed a map of the course.
What a fantastic medal to have won and you would treasure it forever more.
We were walking to Wellington Arch just beyond Buckingham Palace to
go in and up onto the outside balcony to look out over London as this is an
English Heritage property and we are members so we get to go in.
Looking back over the cyclists clearing area where they are then sent on their way home.
Yay - got one this time!!
Thanks for popping by and I hope you enjoyed my walk
around London - I will return as I love it so much
Xx Joy xX
I joined these once I got home, though the border still isn't done
I must get on and finish that!!
