Europe calling.....

We see England and English people in our imaginations ( courtesy... Our English Fiction, detective novels, Literature and Shakesphere ).I was so excited when knew that i was flying to London in a week. It took me by surprise. I thought all my childhood fantasies were finally shaping into reality and visiting london during the summer was like icing on cake.Here are few snapshots of my visit..

I was very keen to visit Tower Bridge as it represents London (atleast in my opnion). Whenever i think of London,this image flashes in my mind. So here goes my first picture....Tower bridge on Thames....


I could not resist myself from appreciating his artistic talent. This gentleman was drawing The Last Supper on the road near Trafalgar Square....


A view of London from St.Paul's Cathedral. I had a terrible experience as i have fear of heights. Only god knows how i was standing there..may be the Love for London made me to do this.

I was taken by surprise when my husband told that we were going to switzerland. We first landed in Geneva from where we took a train to Grindelwald. It was pitch dark when we reached there and there was no electricity. I was scared as it was a new place ( by then london seemed to be my place and anything apart from london was foreign :-)). We booked a hotel room in advance. So the concerned person came and picked us from the station. There were no lights, only candles glowing here and there.... Next day when i woke up to see this....................


A snapshot from our hotel room.....

I nagged my husband to buy me a watch and he bought me these.....



A chocolate CAN and Bell..... :(.


Innovative and creative ways of using wood... Could not resist to capture these.....




The best time to visit Europe is During April - August.

Love
