May vacation sketches

Our week off in beginning of May was rather busy. Among other things, we made a bike trip to Windsor – and here’s some sketches from there. It was a long way (we spent 5 hours on bikes), but the path is very nice. It goes along the river most of the time, which is very picturesque, and features hundreds of geese, river locks, bridges and even a ferry. It was hard not to stop for sketching every fifteen minutes!

We also visited Greenwich – was aiming to do that for good two years – we got there by boat and had a nice walk around. This sketch is from a top of a hill, above the prominent Greenwich meridian:
