We had a fun day

Today was our British Red Cross fundraising event. We reached our target in flying colours. Of course this would not have been possible without all your help and support. So I thank each and everyone of you who contributed for this great cause. You can go to this link to checkout how much we raised if you wish to do so   http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/team/thecrazyquintet or the the button on the left hand column will take you to the page. The link will be open for a few more weeks if anyone else wants to chip in. 
After we registered at the desk we started our walk. We had so much fun along the way. The weather was great. London was full of smiling people and many of them waving and some cheering us on.And many many tourists who no doubt wondered what we were doing walking in crazy red shoes:-)  Along the way we too did some sight seeing:) . It also made me realise how much we miss when we are going by public transport or in a car. I must have travelled those streets umpteen times on my way to work but never knew that there were so many little interesting nooks and corners along the way.
Victoria embankment gardens
Millennium bridge
St. Paul's cathedral
Embankment
The iconic tower bridge

The Shard
Old Blackfries bridge

All in all it was a wonderful day.
Once again a huge thank you to everyone.

  4. Well done Shashi, Sujatha, Anu, Prisha and Shalini – what a fabulous amount you raised! So glad you had a good day and lots of sunshine. Great ‘photos thanks for sharing them, it reminds me it’s time for a visit to London. It’s a bit of a trek from Somerset but worth it once we get there. Have a great weekend. Barbara
