This evening Mel and I went on a Christmas lights walking tour with our friends from Bermondsey. Wow! I must say I have never seen Christmas lights like this before. It really was quite amazing. London is very beautiful at this time of year. We were just following the crowds, but I think we went along Regent St., Oxford St., and definitely to Trafalgar Square and Piccadilly Circus.

At Trafalgar Square they have an enormous pine tree decorated in Christmas lights. Apparently it has become custom for Norway to send a huge Christmas tree as a token of gratitude for Britain's help during the Second World War. Anyway, it was big! Check out our photos here.
