Well, these are not exactly pictures as I wasn't in London myself, but pictures captured by my digital camera of TV images from Ghana's state television GTV. Sue me!;-) This is Westminster, UK, as you might have surmised, and you can see one of the quintessential landmark that typifies the UK: the Big Ben. I fyou look closely enough at the image capture, you can see the ticker scrolling from righ to left with the words :you are watching a live coverage of..."
this image, regrettably, is not as clear as I would've wanted it to be, but let me just say that it provides a vignette--of sorts--of Ghanaians in the UK watching the Queen of England move graciously, albeit geriatrically, with the Ghanaian president.
Finally, this image shows both UK and Ghana flags (can you see the red-gold-green of the Ghana flag?)lined up one after the other on both sides of that famous road near the Palace, and ,with a motoracade I could only describe as UK-protocol-engineered-yet-formidable. The road is so famous I forget the name...;-)
Apologies--yet again--for the lack of posting, but the sporadic nature of the Net has been so bad it's not funny. Please bear with me, and have a great weekend in the meantime!!
