THE GREAT GREENWICH WHALE Beaches on the Thames as Part of GDIF2013

Thousands turned out to see the whale that swam up to Vauxhall Bridge in 2006 - now a realistic life-sized art installation of a 17m sperm whale will come to Royal Greenwich as part of GDIF2013 (Greenwich + Docklands International Festival), a nine day festival of outdoor performing arts 21-29 June. Londoners can see this vast creature and celebrate the wonder of whales, sea creatures and the sea without harm to a real whale.
