Kinsey, Ashley, and I went on the Lambeth and the South Bank walk last week. Since our walk went right by the Somerset House & Courtauld Institute Gallery, we made a day out of it and spent some time at the gallery. It was a great day! This walk was really fun for me because it is right downtown, so we got to see the main part of London; and it is also kind of by where my mom and I stayed while she was here visiting. My favorite part was walking along the river and to see the London Eye. I found it interesting when we read the London Walks book that the Eye was put up to mark the millennium, and that it wasn't supposed to be permanent, but they decided to leave it up. I think that with the London Eye, it really completes the city; and without it, it wouldn't be the same. The whole walk was really fun, and I would have to say that this was one of my favorite walks.

Thanks, Annie, for posting this. My records show that you have only walks 4, 8, and 11 left to complete. Keep up the good work.
