Some of the canal boats moored along the canal.
Today we spent most of our time on water. We made our way up to a place called Little Venice and took a canal boat along the canal to Camden Lock. There, we spent the remainder of the morning wandering the gigantic markets that cover most of the centre of Camden. We returned to Westminster and took a cruise along the Thames to Greenwich Village. Our first places of interest were the meridian line and the Royal Observatory. We checked our watches to make sure that we had the correct time. We then went to the Queen's house at Greenwich, but unfortunately they were closed because there was a wedding celebration in progress.
