London England

We dropped the van off at the port in Southampton and made our way to London for a few days. We lucked out with beautiful sunny days, but crowds of people. It was the weekend and everyone was out enjoying the city.

Champ and Vincent Van-go parked up at the port, waiting to be loaded on the ship to South Africa.

Hyde Park - A beautiful Friday afternoon in the park.

Hyde Park

On Saturday there was a car show in downtown London. They closed Regent Street and filled it with old cars. The cars were fabulous. The weather perfect. I can't imagine how they could do the show without a perfect clear day.

Beautiful old classic cars

Flawless!

The blue upholstery was unusual.

This car looks like a locomotive.

Old fire truck. Lots of the vehicle owners were dressed in period correct clothes.

The ever popular Volkswagen bug.

New Morgan. Looks good!

Of course there were fast sports cars.

Another over the top fast car, this time a Ford.

Christmas decorations on Regent Street. Unfortunately they were not turned on yet.

Piccadilly Circus

The large lighted sign in Piccadilly Circus advertising Turkish Airlines. Guess what airlines is flying us to South Africa.

Graffiti in the East End of London

More graffiti. These are very talented artists.

And more graffiti.

Columbia Road Flower Market. It was packed, but how can you not love a flower market.

Fresh bouquets of mums. It was hard to resist buying some.

Fall plants.

Says it all!
