Another couple weeks have past....

Once again more blogging on it's way.  It was kind of a slow couple weeks, but it doesn't take much for a guy to wonder around to find some interesting things to do, and objects to photograph.  Enjoy.
London Egg
When I first came around the corner I only saw the building on the right.  And I couldn't believe something like this existed.  Then I saw what was across the street, and then what was on the corner in front of it.  The complexity of architecture within one block blew my mind.
Super cool if you ask me!
Part of the "Monument," which was built to remember "The Great Fire of London," in 1866.
Syn and I went to the Victoria and Albert Museum last weekend.   
Sculpture.
Syn wanted to be a part of the action.  She was too short. 
Lots of old stain glass there.
Most of the statues are casts of the origionals. 

Syn sneaking into on of my many photos!

A few Michelangelo sculptures.


We went to Bath a while back and I thought a few pics should make it up onto the blog.
Enterence to a Roman Bath house.

Cresent Ave.  Famous people live here I was told.
Time for the arty section once again.

So they say there are pubs on every corner. They might be right. The green awning with the 13 on it is the enterence to our flat. If you look down to the far right you will see the East Hill Free House, or pub. Closer than I would have ever thought I would live to a pub.

Syn and I went down to a summer beach tourist town called Weymouth on sat. She and her friend Rachel where doing a 1 mile swim in the ocean to raise money for the British Heart Foundation. The town was a really cool setting for summer events

Later that afternoon we went back to Dorset {In the country} and found this spot high up in the hills and tried to fly a kite. Thanks to the help of another man who clearly knew how to fly a kite we where able to get the silly thing up in the air. Turned out to be quite a bit fun!
