This was the only trip out I made with my camera in March, due to Covid! Yes, Brian and I both succumbed to Covid - along with half the village it seemed. Brian had it first and five days later I went down with it - on the day I was due to go away for the weekend to an AGM and a visit to my granddaughter. Fortunately, I was not very ill with it and on the eighth day tested negative, along with Brian, on his thirteenth day. A week later and Brian is only just beginning to feel better.
I was so pleased I was covid-free to be able to go on this trip to Canary Wharf with the U3A. I went with my friend Angie and we had a really good day. We had been watching the forecast all week. On Monday and Tuesday the forecast for Thursday was to be wet with sleet and snow! The situation changed on Wednesday that it would be a bright and cloudy day, and it was, although quite windy and chilly. It snowed just as I got home, but didn't last long.
We had an interesting tour of the Docklands Museum. The building itself was interesting, being in an old warehouse. I did find the section on slavery upsetting, but otherwise, it was all fascinating.

I couldn't resist this - I think they were Chinese dumplings. |

My favourite photo of the day - it looks like this building is trying to eat its neighbour! |

They assured us it was lovely and warm! |
