Post a CommentThanks for the stroll in Southampton. Good slide show.
Great Stuff, as usual.
nice pics
Comparatively speaking, the U.S. is so young!
Looks very nice, great pictures.
:) :) :)
Since so much of Southampton got destroyed in the war, a lot has been rebuilt, and so there is a mix of old and new, and all too much of the horrible 1960's architecture. Apart from the original city centre and the walls, the roads and main part of the city are a real mess.
Looks a nice city. Didn't see so much of it on the way to a footie match in '77!
Wonderful!!!
That statue on the bridge was cool and I loved the old city gate.
