Floating Earth by Luke Jarram – Middle Dock
On a freezing cold evening I went with my youngstest son and his girlfriend to Canary Wharf to enjoy the delights of the Winter Lights. There are 22 in all, spread over the whole of Canary Wharf, including inside Crossrail Place and the Roof Garden. This made for a nice stop to warm up! Five are permanent features I have seen before, so we mised those out, except for Adams Plaza Bridge which is always worth a photo.
The event began on Wednesday 18th January and continues to Saturday 28th January and runs between 5pm and 10pm. It is also free. You can download an APP of the map, or receive a hard copy from the many stewards around Canary Wharf. We did have to queue outside to get into Amina, but the line moved forward reasonably quickly. There were also queues inside Crossrail Place, but again all moved fast, and at least there it’s warm.
It takes a while to walk to and view all the exhibits, but it is worth it, and at Westferry Circus you are right on the River Thames. Anyway, enjoy the photos and videos.
