They are trickling in…

Kirsten arrived at 8:00 AM and we woke up with a start barely 10 minutes before and quite stiff from all the walking yesterday. It was a comedic greeting as we struggled into clothes so we could greet her in the lobby.

Paul trotted over shortly after. Sadly, Michael had exams he couldn’t wriggle out of and a class that he needed to be at on Monday, and Missy needed to be at home, so we carried on without them.

Ottolenghi Marleybone

We fortified ourselves at Ottolenghi and then poked into food shops on the Marleybone High Road. So much gorgeousness.

With Paul as our guide we headed over to the House of Parliment for a tour. Wow!

Lord Chatham

Almost no photography allow in Parliment, but we did find a statue of Lord Chatham, who was Prime Minister at the turn of the19th Century.

Very interesting tour in such a magnificent building.

A good long walk along the South Bank, over the bridge and back to Somerset House and a tour through The Savoy Hotel.

Enough walking, so back to the flat via The Tube. Ampy hasn’t taken a subway in over 50 years, but he did for Paul.

A bit of a rest, a cup of tea, then we went to one of Paul’s haunts and ate so quickly we had no time for pictures.

Almost 17,000 steps and full bellies. We’ll sleep tonight and welcome the V’s tomorrow!
