Covent Garden - Juggler

This is video from one of the performers at Covent Garden. This is juggler who ends his act by juggling with a chain saw. I might also add that it was a little rainy the day I saw him.

The Dr Who Exihibit

This was a really cool exhibit that I went to when I was in London last year. It was the Dr Who exhibit. It had props and costumes and other things from the show. I thought it rather interesting that lots of dads were there with their sons. In some cases it seemed to me that bringing the kid to the exhibit was an excuse for the father to get in and see it.

Covent Garden, Classical Music

This is a classical group that played in Covent Garden. They set up in an area where there were tables and chairs and people would sit and eat their food. The group was very good and also had a great deal of fun with the auidence.

Covent Garden

Here's a sample of some of the great street artists that you can find at Covent Garden. This guy was very good. Give a listen to the blues London style.

Hampton Court

Here's a talk by Lady Anne Herbert (or at least someone portraying her) about how she came to Hampton Court and a little of the history of the place. She was very good as were all the characters at Hampton Court.

A Year Ago

A year ago I was in London having one of the best vacations I've every had. Here are a couple of pictures of the trip. Since I have my new computer, I can actually post video that's longer than 20 seconds. So over the next few days I'm going to posting some video of my trip.















































































This is one of my favorite pictures. One of the bobbies at the Olympic torch ceremony.
