More of London

London Eye

London Eye seen from across the Thames (River), where the riverboats load passengers. As far as I am aware, the Eye never stops moving, but moves so slow that people can get into and off the pods without the need for a total halt. I have been fortunate to go up at dusk and see the lights coming on all over London. To me, this is the best time. It takes about 45 minutes for a complete circuit.

Just behind me was a public toilet where they charge 50 pence to pee. I think that is hitting below the belt, basically milking people in their bursting moments.
