Day 91: London

Took the train from Mile End to Westminster. Stumbled out of the station and Big Ben was right there taking our breath away. We did a little ring route over the bridges past the covid memorial wall and Westminster Abbey before hunger got the better of us. Looking for food we noted the roads to the Abbey were all blocked off and Bobbies everywhere. Turns out the King and Queen of Belgium were in the house and we got to see the laying of the wreath for those fallen and the armed forces procession. Walked through Trafalgar Square and ate at O’Niels near China Town before heading to see Hades Town at the Lyric Theatre in the West End. The first half was good but the second half was mind blowing. Tears. Walked through Piccadilly Circus to catch a train to Wimbledon. Big mistake. Huge. Despite the fact there was still tennis on they weren’t letting anyone in. Couldn’t even get merch. So sussed out our local pubs instead.En savoir plus
