Summer and Ships

We are constantly amazed at the spectacles in and around London.....just want to share about the recent additions in our backyard (near where we stay).....staying in the docklands area near canary wharf (also know as Isle of Dogs or the rich part of E14)...

As part of the olympic games...the rich and famour are here....and so are the tall ships...

Let us show you what we is docked in our back YARD!!! (so cool)

Being part of the olympic games!!!

As the London Olympic games approaches.......we can see that the capital is now busy and full of buzzz.....not only are we going to be part of the games (going to volleyball and football matches).....we had our own chance to hold the olympic torch not too long ago!! There are around 8000 torches made (one for each runner)....so the one we held must be one of the 8000!!! Wish I could own one...but it cost around £3000 pounds on ebay for a used one! (from the runners who are selling up)



Will keep you posted on our olympic journey!!!
