The Ferry Home

Whilst I live by the river, there's no river taxi service that goes as far out along the Thames to where I live... Which is a shame as it would be a great way to commute to work...

If you are ever in London and want a cheap river cruise, don't pay big bucks for the guided tour, just jump on a river taxi from Westminster to Greenwich.. You get to see all the sites for a few pounds..

BTW... First standard tourist shot of old London town for 2012... bet it won't be the last...

I tried to find some interesting architecture today, but only found abandoned factories- I think you more than made up for my lack of success

[BirdNerd (Sandra M)]

it's classic! If I ever get over there, I want to take all the classic tourist shots!
