The views are pretty spectacular, and it's a train only bridge, meaning no ducking and weaving amongst cars and buses. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_EwHYWqHYUpI/R0SzPOnpWRI/AAAAAAAAANk/ThjATB-dM7c/s1600-h/IMG_5887.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_EwHYWqHYUpI/R0SzPOnpWRI/AAAAAAAAANk/ThjATB-dM7c/s400/IMG_5887.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5135426549313001746" border="0" /></a><br /><br />It also leads to an interesting short cut through Charing Cross station so you can avoid all the tourist pedestrian traffic on the Stand, which I suspect is one of those secret things only Londoners know. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_EwHYWqHYUpI/R0SzQunpWSI/AAAAAAAAANs/_IMHksqT8xM/s1600-h/IMG_5889.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_EwHYWqHYUpI/R0SzQunpWSI/AAAAAAAAANs/_IMHksqT8xM/s400/IMG_5889.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5135426575082805538" border="0" /></a><br /><br />But one of the best things about it I've recently discovered is that there is a Quizno's underneath the bridge on the northern side of the river, a lunch spot from the states that I've sorely missed. It's dreadfully expensive and I'm actually thankful for that, or else I'd spend nearly every nice day noshing my fresh sandwich standing in the sun on Hungerford Bridge, soaking up the view. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_EwHYWqHYUpI/R0SzQ-npWTI/AAAAAAAAAN0/pkyepvN8ScQ/s1600-h/IMG_5893.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_EwHYWqHYUpI/R0SzQ-npWTI/AAAAAAAAAN0/pkyepvN8ScQ/s400/IMG_5893.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5135426579377772850" border="0" /></a>Monicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14507266000183111782noreply@blogger.com
