London Feb 08 Part 3

This is the Imperial War Museum, and its free to visit!





Inside the museum...



When i got back to Earls Court i noticed that the Brit Awards were taking place Inside the exhibition centre.



The last evening i was in London, i got VERY DRUNK in the pubs at Earls Court. When i got back to my hotel room i took this photo, which i do not remember taking!

The next day i walked past the BBC Television Centre.


And i spotted the 'Prank Patrol' van (kids tv programme)



Later i went to Buckingham Palace, not inside though LOL!




This is the famous Carnaby Street.

Then i had a look around Chinatown!



Westminster, Big Ben, and the Houses Of Parliment.


Piccadilly Circus!




Then i went for a beer (or five) in Kings Cross, before getting my train back to Leeds.

London Feb 08 Part 2

After visiting the tower, i decided to go to the Tower Bridge Experience. This is where you can go up to the top of the towers, and walk along the two footbridges at the top.




Here is a close up of the top footbridges.




This is the inside of the footbridge.




A nice view of the Thames.




The other footbridge.




This is a view of the inside, of one of the towers, looking upwards.



Then i went down to the old boiler room, which powerd the machinery that raised and lowerd the bridge, so ships can pass through.




These are the old steam powerd engines.







A view of the bridge.
