London Landmark Offers an Extra Hour of Beauty This Weekend
You know that feeling, right? The clocks change, you lose an hour of sleep, and you're dragging all day. Well, this weekend, one London landmark is saying "screw that!" and offering a little extra time to enjoy its beauty.
Big Ben, the iconic clock tower, is going to be staying on "summer time" for an extra hour this weekend. It's a one-time thing, a little gift from the folks who maintain the clock tower, to help us all adjust to the time change. It's like a little "thank you" for putting up with the shorter days and the whole "it's dark at 4 pm" thing.
This is pretty cool, right? I mean, we're all used to the clock tower being on time, like, always. But this weekend, it's going to be like it's living its best life, hanging out a little longer in the sun. The extra hour will be a chance to see the iconic clock face bathed in the golden light of a late afternoon sun.
More Than Just a Time Change
It's not just about the extra hour, though. It's about a little bit of magic, a little bit of fun, and a little bit of "you're not alone in this." We all feel the time change, right? But this little act of defiance from Big Ben is a way to say, "Hey, we got you. Let's enjoy this extra hour of sunlight together."
And, of course, it's a great photo op. Imagine the pics! Big Ben with the sun setting behind it, bathed in golden light. It'll be an extra special shot to capture this rare moment.
So, this weekend, don't forget to take a moment to appreciate the extra hour of sunshine, and thank the folks who gave Big Ben the day off. And maybe, just maybe, it'll become an annual tradition. We can always use a little extra daylight in London, right?
