Memorial to the Battle of Britain
The spectacular memorial to the Battle of Britain which can be found on Victoria Embankment, not far from the Houses of Parliament. As someone who studies memorials and such for a "living," I really liked it. Must remember to do more reading about the Battle of Britain as the 70th anniversary commemorations were just a couple weeks ago and it was all over the papers.

A stunning image.
ReplyDeleteI really like it, although it's a little bit spooky...the eyes look so real...
ReplyDeleteLondon is my favorite city in the world (with Paris a very close second) so I'll be following your blog to see how you are enjoying living there. I think I would love it. Good luck with school.
