London & Paris

March 22, 2025  -  March 29, 2025

 

Quite a relaxed start to the day, not getting on the tube till 9.30 DO NOT GET USED TO THIS!!! Gretchen and Nathan briefly broke away to get photos of Stamford Bridge, the home of Chelsea FC Next time we must arrange for Manchester - the red half - to be in the itinerary! The Tower of London...950 years old and containing the Crown Jewels. No words. A small section of Roman wall, 2,000 years old in about 20 years. No words (except 'cement', thanks Joe). Borough market for lunch...I think 'teeming' was invented for this very place. A walk along the South Bank to see Drake's Golden Hinde, Shakespeare's Globe and Harry Potter's bridge. The London Eye for London views from 443 feet up. A delicious - really lovely - Chicken Tikka Massala for dinner and then meeting up again with Sean from yesterday for a Jack the Ripper walk...what a day!
