Discovering the East End











Today I discovered that a) East London isn't so far away as everyone thinks; b) there are some nice bits, like Chrisp Street market, and Docklands arts quarter Trinity Buoy Wharf; c) it is incredible (and perhaps slightly obsene) how Canary Wharf can be seen like a distant eldorado everywhere you go; and d) almost anywhere feels safe if you visit in daylight.



For a project on the area, I spent a day walking around the East side of Canning Town. I also got my first live sight of the Millenium Dome, er I mean the O2 stadium. Here are some pics.
