Virgin Atlantic Flight 002, specifically the wing of the 747 from Newark to Heathrow.  Virgin Atlantic remains the best airline I have ever been on, and it played an integral part of a now legendary Christmas 1995 London trip, a trip which managed to haunt my time there more than I expected.

This is Victoria Street in London, populated by stone buildings, red double decker buses and a looming, distant, world famous clock.

The first of potentially many artistic (and by that I mean confusing) pictures, this time a lion, Nelson's column and some wayward resting pigeons at Trafalgar Square.

Rising high (probably about 400 feet) above the south bank of the Thames, the British Airways London Eye allows 20 people at time a half hour of fun over central London.  At least until 2005, the wheel does not stop (during regular operating hours of course); passengers safely get on and off its slow moving cars, causing unnecessary anxiety for confused, even slower moving visitors.
