Dangling over the Thames



Tower Bridge has a glass floor. You look down on the traffic and the water, both rushing past. So many things about London in the past are strikingly just as they are today ; before Tower Bridge was built, there was only London Bridge and it got (you guessed it) too crowded. The pictures they had of London Bridge, overcrowded, were so like yesterday afternoon on Westminster Bridge. Crowded and pricy, and enjoyed anyway -- London.

My view: part London, part mini-gymnast. This is Westminster (the London) and Nina (the gymnast).
