We are so glad we braved the crowds and cold to stand on the Thames and ring in the New Year. BBC 1 provided the soundtrack, helpfully broadcast by the party boat moored nearby, and we had a great view down the river from a small terrace off of Embankment. At New Years, they amplified Big Ben clanging out 12 strokes - and the fireworks began! Hope everyone is feeling well and happy today and bring on 2011!
OMG I was there too!!!! Right under the Eye, though. It was INTENSE! And amazing, of course.
ReplyDeleteWow, what time did you get there to get such a great spot? We heard it was a nightmare to get home on the tubes so we opted to stay on the north side of the river. Nice work!
