Wednesday 30th September
Today we took the bus (bus pass at the ready!) to Trafalgar Square
..... and walked for miles and miles and miles!!
Sculptor Antony Gormley invited the people of the UK to occupy the empty Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square in London. Every hour, 24 hours a day, for 100 days without a break, different people made the plinth their own.
Suzanne H was on the plinth at 10:57 when I took this photograph - if you follow the link to her video and fast forward to 56.8 minutes you will get just a glimpse of George with Molly walking to the right to the rear of the fountain.
