Greenwich

My last full day was spent wandering, quite aimlessly at times, around Greenwich. The sky was mostly clear, which compared to its normal gray did an exceedingly good job at lighting up the old buildings of the city. There is much more open space here, between the University and the Maritime Museum and the park surrounding the observatory. It was my favorite place I'd visited all week. The sun never gets too high even in the middle of the day at this time of year, so even noon offers pleasant shadows. The prime meridian passes through here, so opting out of the five pound charge to stand over their crafted line, we had a fun time figuring out where it passed on our side of the fence.
