Cutty Sark

Today was Tom’s birthday so he took a day off and we went through to see the Cutty Sark. It was a really surprising experience due to the way they had preserved the ship. They built a dry dock around it and suspended it in mid air so you can walk underneath it as well as through the decks. The information points inside were, ah, informative and they had plenty of items you could pickup and touch rather than just stare at through glass.

We had lunch afterward and then set off to meet Nicola, Richard and Nicolene in Leicester square for an early dinner. We killed some time beforehand in Waterstone’s. Bookstores here are just in a different league.

It was really great to catchup again with old friends. Pity that Renier couldn’t make it due to work commitments 🙁
