Day 39 London, UK Departure

A lovely end to our trip but sad to be saying goodbye to the best tour guide ever! Thank you, Alanna. We have loved touring with you. So much fun. Today started with an Uber ride to Alanna’s flat where we left our bags. We then walked all the way down through Hammersmith and the beautiful Notting Hill area, stopping for coffee and cinnamon buns, until we reached Hyde Park, which has always been one of our favourite places. It was a beautiful clear day with hardly a cloud in the sky. There were lots of people about and lots of dogs and also lots of squirrels. It was a gorgeous relaxing walk and we finished with a walk around Harrods barely able to even buy anything in the souvenir shop! Very interesting though looking at all the beautiful things and shop displays. We walked back to Hyde park to see more squirrels and then have lunch at the lovely Serpentine cafe overlooking the lake. We made our way back via train to pick up our bags, and our tour leader took one last trip with us to Heathrow. We have plenty of time at the airport but are well ready to be home, and while sad to farewell Alanna we are definitely not sorry to have had our last ride in the London Subway for a while!Leggi altro
