Here's a picture I took last week while I was in London.The foundations of the Globe were rediscovered in 1989. Led by the vision of Sam Wanamaker, workers began construction in 1993 on the new theatre near the site of the original (about 200 meters). The latest Globe Theatre was completed in 1996; Queen Elizabeth II officially opened the theatre on June 12, 1997 with a production of Henry V. The Globe is as faithful a reproduction as possible to the Elizabethan model, seating 1,500 people.

WINDERMERE, CUMBRIA
After watching the film MISS POTTER it's time for me to show you a beautiful picture of Windermere. Windermere is the largest natural lake in England, and is entirely within the Lake District National Park. It has been one of the country’s most popular places for holidays and summer homes since 1847, when the Kendal and Windermere Railway built a branch line to it.Oh just a detail ‘mere’ means ‘lake’.
