People of London

We so enjoyed the many people we encountered in the UK. The diversity of culture and their friendly light hearted approach to life was wonderful. Below is a familiar sight - The Bobbies were great.
In the city of Bath, among other things they are famous for, is what is called a Bath Bun. It is a sweet roll with sugar and fruit on top. Here Vandi is asking directions on how to get to the bakery where we can find a Bath Bun.
Success. Russ, Denise and Vandi enjoying a "Bath Bun."

A new friend that Denise found at Punch and Judy's pub.

Street Vendor. Despite rumors to the contrary, we found the food in London wonderful.


Brits take their sports very seriously. A group of fans headed to a rugby match.

A jugglers assistant.


Vandi, Denise and Russ enjoying the magician.

The street performer ( magician ) had everyone so intent on his act. The following few pictures are many of them watching.



These kids were so enthralled with the action, they had no idea I was shooting these shots.







Wonderful, beautiful People of the UK.

Thanks for posting your trip. How fun! Glad you had that experience. What was your favorite? Did you stay in London the whole time? LOVE the pic of big ben and the bus and the cab! Itching for a vacation ourselves... it's looking like Wyo for me and the kids, and scout camp for Daniel! ;) He gets to go to Catalina Island though... hardly the same. Hope to find a SCREAMING deal to Hawaii this fall. There's GOT to be some in this economy.
