Ice Skating in London

Image
London Ice Skating rinks are beautiful and popular this time of year...above, the London Eyeskate near the Thames.  The Natural History Museum is at the upper right. Who would have thought the Tower of London hosts a skating rink (above left) in the moat area of the property.  You can think about Anne Bolin and the many others who went to their deaths while skating.  Hampton Court Rink, another of King Henry's hang outs, is featured lower right and the posh Somerset House rink (lower left). Info:  The London Telegraph Don't forget, London is  hosting the 2012 Olympics .   The Royal Guard are preparing already (upper right)
