Holiday

I am taking a much needed break from work, a school friend is visiting from home and we are doing the tourist thing all over London. I thought it will be all the same as last year but so far has been pleasantly surprised with how things have changed in the last year. There are whole new sections open at the Tower of London and even Camden Town has expanded since I was there last.

I am looking forward to doing some of the things I will not really get to do with my Significant Other as she isn't really into the whole war thing. My friend has just visited Poland has been to some of the concentration camps like Auschwitz and I have to say I am really keen to go there looking at the books and photos she brought and remembering watching Shindlers List with her when I was in school

We are also watching the Band of Brothers series again and we will be taking a drive out to see the B-52, Blackbird and many other American and British air craft at Duxford.

While walking back from the Tower of London we got some really nice shots of the bridge and HMS Belfast
