Before departing London I passed by these two really interesting looking guys and asked them to make some bench space for me on what was a glorious sunny day. OK, well, it was a pretty humorous setting to sink low enough onto the bench to grab this photo while all the passers-by stopped to take my photo of trying to get this photo!
President Franklin Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill were stallwart allies and became good friends before FDR’s death on April 12, 1945. This wonderful bronze sculpture at the end of New Bond Street stops not just tourists but Londoners who enjoy spending a moment looking at these two remarkable leaders. It is but one of many landmarks in the Westminster area of London that remind us of the historic events that took place there 60 plus years ago.
