Riding the London Eye in England, UK

We eat our gelato as we cross the Golden Jubilee Footbridges over the River Thames. We surprised the kids with a ride on the London Eye at golden hour. We have so much fun and the enjoy the views. It was such a pleasant ride and much more exciting and fun than we expected. The kids loved being up so high and seeing Big Big and other landmarks below. A great way to spend an evening at sunset and see 360-degree panoramic views of London’s iconic skyline!
