Just a short day trip to Brighton, a beach town on the south coast of England. It was about an hour train ride from
Central London. A short walk from the train station brought you on the beach.
I was lucky to visit on a quiet day, kind of breezy. Only a few people were on the beach, not sun-bathing, just resting.
I strolled along the pebble beach for a while, and sat down for a snack.
Brighton Pier is a giantic structure built where about 100 metres into the ocean. They have an game arcade, restaurants and lots of
souvenir shops.
Nightview of Tower Bridge.
A nice walk along Thames at night, this is the new view you get.
Wimbeldon .....
Yes, this crane is at the Wimbledon. They are revamping the whole Wimbledon Tennis Venue.
What a rare fact ? Entering Wimbeldon with your mom as Mixed Double !
A very cool auditorium inside the museum, showing a panaramic video.
The panaramic video is actually made up of 5 videos.
Oh yeah, I want one of those. Don't you ?
When Wimbeldon is on, spectators will sit on this hill to watch a big screen.
On average, they spent about £2 million pounds on landscaping.
As a matter of fact, the whole venue is kind of small.
Court no. 18 ....
The desk where broadcasters doing the interview during Wimbledon.
We were inside the Media Room.
Wimbledon is the competition that is actually hosted in the All England Lawn Tennis Club.
To go in here, you are either a member, or a player, but I am neither ?
Court no. 2
Rolex is down ... oh my god.
Announcing our players today, ... Please welcome Mr. Kenneth Chan.
Court No. 1
See that, I was a Press Member. Will you like an interview ?
Should we play ?
Walking on London Millenium Bridge.
I always want on one of those water tour on the Thames.
The whole bridge was actually hanging on these cables.
St. Paul's Cathedral, view from TATU.
TATU, the modern art museum.
TATU is showing Dali's exhibition.
Look back from TATU ... to St Paul's Cathedral.
What is that ??? the modern washroom inside TATU.
Can't complain when you can enjoy a beer along the Thames with your buddy in late afternoon.
The remains of the old Blackfriars Bridge.
Do you think they willl rebuild it ?
Attracted by these White/Red colours.....
Cast-iron "Rubbish" bin.
Queen Victoria .....
Westminster Bridge ....
Big Ben is the sunset.
A nice silhouette shot of Big Ben.
They are fixing the clock on Big Ben. That is why both hands are on Twelve.
London Eye. Can you see?
Underground - Westminster Station
Ah, .. Tower was built in 1881.
Tower Bridge is actually part of a Palace of Her Majesty.
This is the Palace ...
Very good design, considering it was build in 1881.
The back side of the Palace, where the original wall still stands.
You wonder if they ever change these metal support?
I remembered once I saw the bridge was being pulled up.
