London, after 5 yrs

First time in London was in 1984 whilst undergoing the IPWO Course. In between, had 3 other opportunities (once whilst transit to Scotland) and the last was in 2002 (with Aaron-James, whilst Sarah-Marie is on her school outing).

This trip is my 5th trip after 5 years. Much has changed in terms of new buildings ... and much has not. (Still as crowded than ever !!!). Now, there are armed "bobbies" (Policemen) patrolling the streets and more smokers lining the side of buildings (Probably lacked of Yellow boxes). ... and after so many years, finally managed to see the otherside of Tower Bridge. The area are lined with wharves/godowns which had been converted into office space and residential areas (Condos/apartments). A small mariner where lovely yatch/luxurious boats are kept and restaurants lining the side of the Thames for fine dining. Now !!! Isn't this lovely !!
