He was a skater boy...

Here is a part of London that reminds me more of Germany than the United Kingdom. 


This could easily be anywhere in Berlin but it turns out it is a skater park in Southbank. It is a really cool place, because it is right next to the Thames and a bit further down the river you can see the Big Ben and the London Eye. 


It is a pity that they wanted to close this place down (I guess it does not fit the rest of the prettier London) but luckily enough the managed to save it thanks to demos and other initiatives!


As you can see there is actually a lot of people watching behind a fence (it was really packed!). It is nice to watch them go up and down the colourful ramps… good thing they kept this place! :)
