THE US EMBASSY

Happy Australia Day to all the Blippers from Down Under!

I was a part of a small team from our office who went to the US Embassy for a meeting this afternoon. It is a listed building, so even when the diplomats move out to Nine Elms in 2017, the new owners will not be able to change the facade.

I was late for the meeting - I HATE being late - but luckily the American chairing the meeting was late too!

As well as the large Stars and Stripes and the American Eagle on the roof of the embassy, there is also a statue of the late President Reagan outside. I hope you can view it in large.
