Long day spent in London. Arriving at Blackheath Common walked to the Royal Observatory at Greenwich. From here enjoyed wonderful views of Greenwich, O2 Arena & The City all shrouded in mist. Greenwich was also the site of the Olympic Equestrian Events, now being taken down. After some time taking photographs walked down to The Queen's House, after a quick look inside stopped for lunch at the Maritime Museum. Time then to walk on through Greenwich High Street to see The Cutty Sark. Last time I saw this splendid Ship it was a burnt out wreck. Amazing work has been carried out including lifting her 3 metrs so one can walk underneath. After an hour on the Ship (not enough time) then had to dash across to the O2 Arena where we boarded a Cable Car for the flight across the Thames. With the sun out and blue sky what a way to end the day. Brilliant views. With The Pilot Inn only 5 mins walk away we ended the day with a cup of tea and biscuit!
