We used the tube only two or three times during our stay and much more preferred the busses, when we weren't walking. If we were lucky to get the seats on the upper floor in the front of the bus, we thoroughly enjoyed the panoramic view we had on the ride.
Mind you, during rush hour you are better advised to go on foot because that is then much quicker!

It's been some time since I last posted here. My husband and I went on a trip to London, which was so absorbing that my crayons and paper never got to be used, inspite of my good intensions. But - I have taken loads of photographs and am looking forward to working from them. London was great and very inspiring, as you can imagine! I didn't feel at all like leaving when we had to...
The shot for this first "London" painting was taken after we had just arrived - heading for Islington and waiting for the "Northern Line" late in the evening.
