• Londinium Day of 1

    4 September 2023, Inggris ⋅ 🌙 16 °C

    Arrived in London 4.30am ish. The flight was long but we got into London a bit early.
    We got through immigration OK and they let us into the UK.

    Once we got to the Phoenix Hotel in Kensington Garden Square, we crashed in Dans room and had a shower and a rest. After a little kip we had breaky which is included in our room cost so we had a bite to eat then David and I went for a little walk.

    It seems we hit the jackpot with location as down the road is loads of little shops including a mini Tescos, mini Sainsbury and a mini Waitrose so we are spoilt for choice when it comes to picking up nibbles and yummies.
    We grabbed a few things and went back to the hotel to unpack and get some tours sorted for tomorrow and to catch up with Adam.

    He gave us a call and we are heading to his house for dinner this evening.
    Dan went for a wander to check out the shops and local sights for a few hours before returning. David and Dan went out and got a new SIM card sorted for Dan so he can communicate with us if he wants to do his own thing during our trip.

    We went to Adam and Berta’s house. They are doing lots of renos on their 120 yr old flat. We all went and picked up Emi from day care and found ourselves a lovely Italian Restaurant near their place and had a very yummy dinner together.

    Returned back the hotel via the good ol tube and bus system.
    It’s a very warm English day today, 28 degrees. We are looking at mid to high 20s this week so great weather to do some sight seeing.

    Very weary now, time to snooze.
