Day 1 - London




We've arrived!....after a 29 hour journey from our front gate at 11am Wednesday to Trafalgar Square at 7am (London time).

We spent the first day hitting the streets of London straight away from Trafalgar Square (see Michael in front of the lion) to Westminster via Buck palace, gardens and the Thames. So much to see at every turn. Great lunch for 2 pounds fifty each! (Thai chicken soup in the cloisters at Westminster Abbey!).

After a welcome rest (when we finally got access to our hotel room) we then wandered down over Tower Bridge and found a a pub which looked good - and guess what - it was curry Thursday! Michael was very happy - big meal for 2 with 3 curries, rice, papadams, naan, samosas and chutney and 2 pints of beer or cider for 15 pounds all up.
