Thursday 29th September 2016
Weather today is expected a
cooler 18° and rain this morning.
We had breakfast at 8:30am
and then set off for another day of sight seeing.
Left the hotel and walked to
Paddington Station to buy tickets to Liverpool for Saturday morning. Also got
tickets to Dover for tomorrow to see Dover Castle. While we were there we found
Paddington Bear and bought a Paddington Bear for Zac. Also did some shopping in
Oxford Street.
Back on the tube to Green
Park to look for Lynne’s British Bull Dog Walking stick in Jermyn Street.
Unfortunately there weren’t any. Had lunch in the Richou Café again then walked
to down to see St James Palace, which was built by Henry VIII and used, as the
Royal Palace until Buckingham Palace became the Royal Residence in London. Also
got a fleeting glimpse Clarence House where the Queen Mother lived. Prince
Charles and Camilla now live there.
We have walked 5.5klm’s so
far today so it was time to head back to the hotel to rest our feet and have a
well earned cuppa.
The plan is to go to the
Mitre Pub just round the corner from the hotel for dinner. They serve great
food and have some great dark beers.
