European Adventures - Day 29 to 32

Our last days consisted of packing and getting ready for the long flight ahead. With Kate and I both sick with a cold the rest was definitely needed! Days 31 and 32 we spent on the flight...

European Adventures - Day 28

Kate and I did the Tower of London by ourselves today. Very special place in the heart of London. Managed to see the Crown Jewels in its glory (inside a massive bomb proof safe) No photos allowed :(

European Adventures - Day 27

Today we headed off on the train to Windsor castle. Saw things like the doll house, the nice gardens inside the church there and more. We went allowed to take photos inside though… After that we had some cream tea, NOM! And did a spot of shopping in Winsor.

European Adventures - Day 26

The British museum was the first thing on today’s agenda with the Pompeii exhibition which was quite fitting after just coming from there a few weeks ago. After the exhibition we views some of the great things the museum had to offer including the Rosetta stone.

European Adventures - Day 25

Today I had a tour of Arsenal stadium while Kate went and did tour of the globe theatre. Very interesting and Dad (although only a fan due to Dave) managed to make me an Arsenal fan also.

European Adventures - Day 24

After a late evening catching up with Janine and Dave we had a nice sleep in and watch a squirrel in their back yard. We had a big day planned starting at the London Eye where we managed to get our bearings and full 360 views of the city.

European Adventures - Day 23

Today is another driving day from Paris across the English channel to London. Early start with a 5.45 wake up call means plenty of sleeping on the bus! On the ferry and the white cliffs of Dover straight to London to meet up with Janine and Dave.

Gloomy day at the White Cliffs of Dover

We got our first tube experience going back to their place as it was the easiest for everyone. The night was filled with vino, cheese loads of meat for dinner and catching up.
