Last Day in London

Last day in London and internationally on our trip! :( The sun finally came out for us in London today and we loved it. We had to do washing as we had completely run out of clean clothes. We soon found out after researching and going to multiple laundromats that they are all coin operated so we travelled to an ATM and of course that one was broken and our cards wouldn’t even let us get out cash at a Sainsbury’s. After over an hour of bad luck and annoyance and still lugging our dirty clothes through Notting Hill we just caught a bus to Paddington to a laundromat that we knew had card payment. Luckily it was a success and meant we also got to explore Paddington! We loved Paddington it is such a cute suburb with a stereotypical English charm. We even got to have some of the notorious Greggs sausage rolls.

Afterwards we walked through the colourful Portobello road markets and as it was a Monday is was a lot less busy and more enjoyable. We found THE blue door from the Notting Hill movie which was very exciting for us as well as the bookshop Hugh Grant works in the movie.

From there we went to Liverpool Street and met Charlotte for some lunch and we all just happily wandered through the fancier business district. After saying goodbye to Charlotte we caught the train to Tottenham Stadium to explore the fan store seeing as we couldn’t get game tickets or a stadium tour. From the outside, it looked so modern and really massive! It was a shame we couldn’t get to see a game while we were in London but it was nice to make the journey to the stadium anyway.

Ethan had booked a spot for dinner for our last night as birthday dinner for Iesha and it was so good! He really thought it through (he really is the best). The place was called Manteca and the pasta was delicious and for mains we got steak and pork chop. We finished off the night with gelato of course and spent time laughing over memories and reminiscing everything we’ve experienced in the last 2 months. Czytaj więcej
