Up to town

The view from where we were standing to watch the marathon - if we turned around, that is. You can see the dark clouds beginning to gather...

...just in time to chuck a lot of rain on us, waiting. 

Here come the first of the runners, on the first circuit. 

The rain stopped, for a little while. 

And started again, before the second circuit. Even so, we lost our patience (some of us more than others) and got tired of being soaking wet, so we moved on...

...to the Transport Museum, in Covent Garden.

There was outdoor eating, of course. 

This little tourist was really sweet in her kimono. 

Very high swing!

The book maze at the South Bank Centre - amazing!
