London April 2008

Folder: Great Britain
My visit for a week in April 2008. The weather was so-so -- some days were so cold, windy and damp, and some were so gorgeous. Pix include Islington, the City, King's X/St Pancras, Waterloo, Marylebone and Hampstead. Photos of my daytrip to Whitstable and Reculver are in a separate album.

I so want one of these. If I had the money and could figure out how to get it to the States, I'd buy one in an instant. The pink and grey ones are lovely, too, but the minty green ones are aces. See where this picture was taken. [?]

The only photo I took at the Tate Britain. The weather was crap and my back ached, which made for a day of few photos. But the exhibition was great and I highly recommend it, even though the Camden Town Group wouldn't allow women painters to join! See where this picture was taken. [?]
