The streets of London - again

It seems summer has arrived in London. The last weeks were mostly about bright sunny days and relatively hot weather.

I have to note now, that in Scandinavia if the temperature goes above 20 celsius degrees and you can see the sun at the same time, it can be definitely considered as a wonderful summer weather. In the recent years I got used to this, and now I can't even bear if it is hotter than 30 degrees.
Now I started to have difficulties, as there is almost no wind, and the temperature has approached my limit several times already. I could not stay inside my house, sometimes it is even worse there, so I had to go out taking some pictures.
Above left you could see a picture of my common photo-topic, the London Eye, while on the right the driver of a double-decker is probably having siesta.



These pictures have not been taken on an Easter vacation to Northern Africa or the Middle-East, but on the streets of Whitechapel, in London. It is really interesting to go there, you can experience a totally different atmosphere from what you see a few miles further to the center of London.

Well, this post happened to be quite short, more pictures are coming soon.
