London oh London

I have just been on a nostalgia trip at my other blog – memories of days as a broke student in London, finding things to do that were free and fun, counting the pennies (literally) when it came to anything else (including food, which while at the LSE canteens were reasonably priced, hurt elsewhere). And all these memories on the eve of another trip to London – watch this space for more photographs and posts soon…

The awe-insipiring interiors of the Natural History Museum – I agree with someone’s comment at flickr that this had a Harry-Pottersque air about it…

Storm clouds gathering over London Eye… while the ride itslef may be expensive (but totally worth it, I think – I went late in the evening and fell in love with London all over again – tiny lights twinkling in all directions), views of the London Eye are free, and offer several photo-ops…

Sepia memories… walking by the Thames on the stretch along Tower Bridge…

Another favorite pastime – walking from LSE to Covent Garden… My particular favorites were these pay-and-we-move characters…

Tulips at Regent’s Park – this was in June 2002, just before I was to come back to India…

I am off to London tomorrow for a couple of weeks… More here soon!
