London Overnight


Tower Bridge on the River Thames, one of London’s icons was opened for Fram to pass to her overnight mooring.  Celebration drinks were served on deck.   Crowds waved from the shore, their  daily business stopped while we passed.  
The photos show the story of the journey  upstream England’s longest river:  Industry, the Thames Barrier, the Millenium Dome,  Greenwich College and Park, the Cutty Sark, the new Shard building and finally the Bridge itself.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
A quick dinner, then guests set out to see London by night.  A great end to a cruise.
