Day in London


Day in London

We had a great day out in London yesterday.... its amazing what you can cram into one day!
We started off at the Summer Exhibition at the Royal Academy. I had been looking forward to it for ages and I loved being there. Great to see such a wide variety of work displayed in such beautiful rooms.
We walked over to Tate Britain to meet Dave, and to see the Richard Long Exhibition Heaven and Earth. On display were photographs going back to the 60s and 70s... sculptures and large scale mud wall works.
We had a drink by the river and Dave filled us in on what hes been up to in London since January. Hes grown a beard and is busy meeting lots of new people. It was nice to see him again.
A quick walk over to Trafalgar Square meant we could catch a bit of One and Other where we saw a man on the Fourth Plinth ...throwing t shirts out to the big crowd.
Dave took us to Covent garden for some food and then we said goodbye and took our weary feet back to Paddington for the train home.
