My favorite thing to do in London is walk along the Thames at night and see the lights reflected on the water.

This is the latest art installation in Trafalgar Square, a replica of Lord Nelson’s ship Victory by Yinka Shonibare. I think it looks great in this setting. I am so excited to see it in person! I wonder if it will be lit up at night?? Below are a few other photos I’ve found of the project.

Another brilliant photo by lushlondon!

I am thrilled to see the ship is lit up at night. Can’t wait to see it in person.

I went back to Trafalgar Square in the dark and the new HMS Victory installation was lit up. The rest of Trafalgar square is scaffolding at the mo. Something to do with a show being set up there. I hope they are setting up a big screen for the world cup. Definitely would go there to watch England!!
