London Days

Day One – Gardens, Markets & Kindness Underground

Our first day in London welcomed us with sunshine—a rare but perfect way to begin exploring. We left our hotel and crossed the iconic Tower Bridge, soaking up the sweeping city views, coffee at Hays Gallery, before arriving at the Borough Markets.

After the markets, we caught the Tube to Kew Gardens, where we explored the stunning glasshouses, took in the lush tropical and desert environments, and enjoyed a light lunch in the café. The highlight was the treetop walk, which gave us a new perspective over the gardens.

From Kew, we wandered riverside toward Chiswick, a peaceful stroll beside the Thames. Getting back to Tower Hill on the Tube proved a little tricky, but we were rescued by a kind schoolboy and a young lady who helped us find our way. A simple reminder of how generous strangers can be.

Day Two – Rain in the Cotswolds & a River Walk

Our second day was an escape to the Cotswolds, though the weather had other plans. Rain greeted for part of our trip and we missed the chance to walk Arlington Row, but we still made the most of the day. The charming villages offered a bit of retail therapy, and the warmth of little shops and cafés made up for the wet weather.

Back at the hotel, we settled in for a cozy evening—watched a movie, made ourselves a home-cooked meal, and later enjoyed a peaceful walk along the river, crossing London Bridge and looping back over Tower Bridge to our hotel. The city lights reflected beautifully on the water—a fitting close to two special days in London.

Day 3 - After a hick up in planning Kel had us all packed ready to go to Dover to board our cruise, lucky we checked our tickets he was a day early, So we're made use of our time for exploring museum of Natural History and Victorian Albert museums. The actual buildings are stunning and the exhibits were amazing
