Christmastime in London at Night

I’ve been pretty pumped about this blog post, not because there’s anything special about these photos (they’re not the best quality, what with me not having a tripod with me, nor time to fix my settings for every shot), but because London is so beautiful at Christmastime!

These photos are from a couple evenings last week when I went to a show with a friend and the following day Mom and I explored Oxford and Regent Streets after we went to a pantomime at the Palladium.  I hope you enjoy this trip through part of London at Christmastime.  Apologies for any incorrect information I give about the locations of where these photos were taken…

More to come soon.  Happy New Year, everyone!

I couldn’t get enough of this view of Big Ben and Westminster Palace

I wondered why there were photographers lined up on the bridge looking this way… then I realized what a great shot it was.  🙂

I loved taking in the beauty and shopping at the Leicester Square Christmas Market next to the cinemas where all the London movie premiers take place.

Trafalgar Square, including the Norway Spruce gifted to England every year as a thank you for their help during World War II.

Mel and I enjoyed warming up in the fancy lobby of the Savoy before we went to the show.

West End is the place to go for shows!

Mel and I saw the show Beautiful, an example of store windows near Regent Street, and a church at the end of Regent Street.
