    Windsor, right on Kew

    30 décembre 2025, Angleterre ⋅ 🌙 2 °C

    We awoke to blue sky and sunshine... but still only 2 degrees! We caught the train to Windsor, but no castle visit as it was closed today. The Bavarian themed Christmas market was still operating, so we partook in some mulled wine before continuing our walk around town. Without the tour buses, the streets were pleasant to walk, so we had a leisurely lunch in a cafe before catching the train back to Twickenham.

    A quick turnaround at our apartment, and we caught the bus to Richmond, then walked to the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, for their Christmas at Kew light display. This was the first of the wedding events organised by Erin, so we had the opportunity to meet many of the other wedding guests. The gardens were very popular, with hundreds of families walking the 2 hour circuit, complete with food stalls, amusement rides and Santa still in residence!    En savoir plus

    Walking tour of Twickenham

    29 décembre 2025, Angleterre ⋅ ☁️ 6 °C

    We began our walk around Twickenham with a visit to the Holly Road Garden of Rest, a disused cemetery now being utilised as a playground and dog park. It was the burial ground of the parish from 1782, but was full by 1835, and remained untouched until it re-opened as a public park in 1953.
    Some notable burials include Thomas Twining, founder of Twinings Tea, and William Howe, Commander-in-Chief of the British Army during the American War of Independence.

    We continued along the banks of the Thames, past the church and reception venue of the wedding in a few days. We stopped for lunch at a pub, before returning to our accommodation via a stop at Tescos for supplies.    En savoir plus

    Welcome to Twickenham

    28 décembre 2025, Angleterre ⋅ ☁️ 7 °C

    We departed Adelaide on time at 10.40pm Saturday for our flight to Dubai. We had 4 hours in transit, then an onward flight to London, arriving to overcast skies and 7 degrees.

    Our accommodation for the next week is an apartment in the Twickenham high street, behind the hairdresser. After a quick visit to the grocer across the street for breakfast supplies, we had a quiet night in.En savoir plus
