As Spring blossoms Londoners slowly begin to creep out of the warm comforts of home and venture outdoors again. Last Saturday was SUNNY and beautiful. Nature beckoned and we answered. We set out for the
southbank to explore and see a photography exhibition. Look at us, all grown up, drinking coffee!!! Coffee is new for us, we are in the early phases of learning to enjoy it without becoming addicted to the glorious feeling of the caffeine jolt.
We found an unexpected park right outside of the Embankment Tube Station. London definitely does it's green spaces right! Check out the flowers in this park that we randomly happened upon.
What a beautiful backdrop!
Ughhhh, the city is so alluring when the sun comes out (too bad that is only about 10% of the time)!
We crossed the Millennium Bridge, and got this great cityscape, on our way to the photography exhibition at the
Southbank Center.
James
Ravilious took pictures of the unspoilt, rural area of North Devon. His pictures ranged from breathtaking landscapes to everyday scenes of English families watching football. Brad and I both really enjoyed the exhibit, James captured everyday life in the countryside exquisitely. Brad even enquired about buying a photo but, unfortunately, they were all way out of our humble price range!
After the rural exhibition we decided to step back into contemporary London life and enjoy the wiles of the
southbank center's carnival like atmosphere.
These are just a few of the street performers out that day.
Finally, we strolled to Westminster Tube Station, passing the London Eye on our way. London's sky doesn't look like this very often... which increases our appreciation of it exponentially when it does!

I LOVE the tulips! They remind me of when I came to visit you in London back in college. I've never seen as many tulips in an urban setting as there are in London. Beautiful!
