The tall sailing ships began to assemble the sea side of Tower Bridge yesterday in preparation for today's pageant along the Thames. Over a 1,000 ships will travel along the river today. Can you all please wish the rain away.
I stayed up last night & watched this amazing spectacle - wondered where you were, Mo!! Hope you didn't get too wet. Blogger doing it's 'thing' again so I can't see your pic :(
Lovely, lovely capture! A thousand ships - makes me think of that Iliad bit about the war ships heading to Troy. (Hm, you made me think of Helen of Troy and QEII in the same breath :) Hope the festivities were fun!

Doesn't look good at the moment....
Wonderful capture! Greetings from Brasov!
Yes, when I saw your grey image I thought 'drats'.
Rain, rain, go away,
Come again another day!
Enjoy!
It will be a fabulous sight, no matter what the weather:-)
Yes, it will be amazing no matter the weather - but what more fitting British weather than some rain!
I guess we didn't wish hard enough.
This is so nice!
Amazing photograph. I am watching this on BBC. What a sight.
Oh what a wonderful sight this will be.
Terrific photograph! PS I like your clock too :)
I watched and saw all the rain.
Well, I wished.... clearly not very effectively,
Beautiful! And I watched it on TV!!! The Queen must have been cold and wet, and still she was elegant and sophisticated. Quite a lady.
These ships look great with the bridge behind.
I was out today so I missed seeing the parade of ships today. I hope it is shown on TV tonight. It must be exciting being in London right now.
