HMS Belfast (Pic heavy)

A few months ago I spent a couple of days in London, and took the time to see some things I'd never gotten to before. I'd seen the Belfast before but never been inside, it was a real treat to poke around inside a WW2 cruiser.

I've thrown in a couple of pictures that folks on here might like, various war memorials from around London and a couple from the Cabinet War Rooms.

The full-res 6016x4000 images are here - http://imgur.com/a/lISsg#0

Possibly the most English picture I could have taken. Heard a commotion above me while on the Embankment, and this was going on.

Submarine Service memorial.

The wreaths are from various submarine associations, if I'd known I would have left a SUBSIM one.

Royal Tank Regiment Memorial, just off Whitehall.

Interesting Admiralty map from the CWR

STEED, BossMark - yer money's in here!

It was a beautiful day, doesn't come across in the pictures but very sunny.

HMS Belfast.

Love the camouflage scheme.

The business end.

More below.
