Greenwich

The boat docked at Greenwich Pier and I had a great afternoon exploring the city. First I walked around the Old Royal Navy College and visited the chapel and painted hall there.

Then I took the steep trail up to the Greenwich Observatory and toured the museum there. I also got to straddle the Prime Meridian, the beginning of the world. The view from the top of the hill is gorgeous. You can see downtown London from there.

Afterwards, I walked through antique markets in downtown Greenwich and got some lunch. Finally, I visited the National Maritime Museum at the bottom of the hill. It was surprisingly very fun. Most of the exhibits were interactive and geared towards kids. I had to look on jealously as the kids got to play...
