The Thames

I love vintage pics like this one taken in 1900. I wonder what became of these people?

I wonder what was so interesting down there?

Please note that this entry is for both the Tuesday, and Wednesday editions of WW. Thank you for stopping by!

Happy Holidays!

Well... given that all of those people would be well over 100 by now, I suspect what became of them is they're dead now.

Would be interesting to know what had them so fascinated though. Guess we'll never know.

The girl on the left was my grandmother and she became a lady in waiting to Queen Mary. She died in 1973 at her home on the Sandringham estate.
