The London Eye

The London Eye

Following Starlight Express, their last day was to be spent getting together with Robert and Sarah to on the London Eye.  Lori had already gone on it with her parents while they were in London but didn't mind another trip.  


After taking the tube into the city, they met up with Rob and Sarah for lunch at a cafe in Covent Garden.  Here is a lovely group shot of everyone.




 

Here is a boarding pass.  There was a half hour-45 minute wait to get on the eye but it didn't matter.  It gave everyone a chance to chat and catch up.  It cost £9 to ride.  The Eye is located right on the River Thames across from Parliament so it's in an excellent location!


Jon and Lori on the eye..with Parliament in the background!  On a clear day one can see for miles out to the rolling hills beyond the city.  Ride during the day AND at night if you can..it is supposed to be a different experience to see everything lit up.

A lovely group shot before getting off...what a ride!


This is one of the capsules.  They fill them with an average of 15 people but on a slow day you can have as few as 7 (as Lori did on her first time!)
