London / Tate Museum
And so we began where we left off, at Borough Market, as we head west along the South Bank towards the Tate Museum.
We have still yet to get any Monmouth coffee, but from what locals have said, it's supposedly London's equivalent to SF's Blue Bottle Coffee. We'll see...
As we walked away from the market, I spotted a brand new S Class. First one I've seen in person and I gotta say, I'm a big fan of this gen. It just oozes class in a slick manner that the previous 2 gens could never touch.
The colors...
Pretty interesting how they set up the Starbucks here. The hole-in-the-wall manner would not fly as well in the US.
A pretty cool LED firework display. They did a good job keeping the light grid low key and hidden.
We've still have yet to go to a Wagamama. Their noodles look quite tasty and the prices weren't too bad either.
The Globe, where Shakespeare debuted his plays. It's still in use today, though nowadays they prefer women to play the roles of women.
What did the fox say...
And here is the Tate Museum which is London's premiere museum for modern art. Looks kinda like a huge factory right?
Of course the Millennium Bridge continues to be an outstanding structure to look at no matter which angle you stand.
Didn't I mention the size? It really is bigger than it look in these photos.
What's wonderful about it is how they left the center hollowed out to continue that theme of scale. Had this been filled up with its many levels of galleries, the structure wouldn't have seemed as impressive. But left in this manner with its cavity open to observe, it gave the impression of a massive hanger where blimps and rockets were built from.
The ever amused Michelle...
Meanwhile a serious battle of good and evil was unfolding below us.
Dude needs a burger or something...
F-YEAH!
Most art museums usually have a pretty good gift shop but this one really had a ton of books I would have loved to go home with.
Last part coming soon.
