London U.K. London Eye, The world from above. Λονδίνο Η.Β., Το "Μάτι του Λονδίνου". Ο κόσμος από ψηλά.

The wheel does not stop turning. You run and enter the plexiglass capsule and as it starts to rise, the horizon is expanding and a new world is being revealed before your eyes. It is the wold as the birds see it. From above.
 Ο τροχός δεν σταματά να γυρνά. Τρέχεις να μπείς μέσα στην πλαστική κάψουλα και όπως αρχίζει ν' ανυψώνεται, ο ιορίζοντας αρχίζει να επεκετείνεται και ένας καινούριος κόσμος ανοίγεται μπροστά στα μάτια σου. Η εικόνα του κόσμου από ψηλά. Όπως την βλέπουν τα πουλιά.

  6. Amazing. I lived in London for 3 years after they built it, saw it actually coming up, but I never managed to go in it, the queues were always far too long.

  8. Τώρα που τις ξανακοιτάζω, χάλια το ποτάμι τους. Σκέτη λάσπη. Ο Δούναβης εδώ μοιάζει καλίτερος. Αλλά γι'αυτά δεν φταις εσυ φυσικά. Καλή σου μέρα.
