Easter holidays - London (#3)

Sunday was a busy day, but we started up with a church ... Well, St Paul's cathedral :-)

Hidden !

Next step was the Tower Bridge, that we couldn't miss. Yes, it is a blue bridge.

Our plans ended here ... Improvisation along the Thames, in Southwark borough ...

And a quite disturbing glance at the so modern City,

from one of the oldest side of London.

... so relaxing ...

Going back, but staying on the same side of the Thames.

The Docklands borough features the City Hall:

and more generally speaking, plenty of nice splines :-)

Oh yeah, I really want

that way! Different atmosphere, maybe more vibrating at Covent's garden ...

and we finally joined back the touristic crowd looking for some fresh air at Trafalgar Square.

After a short rest, we were ready again to walk on desert streets with typical pubs ...

... and to cross the Thames, to enjoy a rehabilitated area (once more!). Flashy and design buildings :

... just very close to second-hand books market. We bought a Sherlock holmes :-)

... and also thought (a bit).

Another nice structure with amazing trees on the roof:

The millenium bridge once more, but it really deserves it!

And finally our pub (and our fish&chips), after so many kilometers walking !

Did I mention the perfect not-Londonian weather ?
