      Day 3

      September 15, 2023 in England ⋅ 🌙 12 °C

      Day 3:
      We set off expecting to see 7 major attractions...and ended the day exhausted after seeing just a few. We need more time - or a return trip. 1st stop was St Paul's Cathedral; Wow! It was beautiful without the over the top oppulance of the Vatican. I managed the 300 steps to the gallery and Matt did the extra 200 to the top. We then went to Tower Bridge, then took a boat ride to Greenwich to see the Cuttysark. After a pint, we went to Westminster Bridge to take a photo of Big Ben, then just sat and watched London pass on by, before walking to Trafalga Square - passing by Number 10 to see if the PM was home - he wasn't!Read more

    • Day 9

      West Drayton

      June 13, 2016 in England ⋅ 🌧 14 °C

      Today was a series of unfortunate events as we had a taste of when things don't go our way, a bitter taste. We spent half the morning deciding what we shall do on our final day in Amsterdam, since we already finished our checklist. We had decided to go for a canal tour since thats what most tourists do. Once we reached our destination we couldn't find any canal tours, we also realised that none of us wanted to do the tour. We then decided to go for a second chance to see the Portuguese synagogue. We walked past Anne Franks house on the way, but we turned it down to go see the synagogue. By the way, it was closed. We didn't know this until we got there.

      However we didn't give up. We wanted to have a great send off in Amsterdam so we optimistically boarded the tram to hit the city centre. To our luck the tram lost power and we had to get off at a random station. That is when we gave up and just returned to the hotel and lazed around the hotel until it was time to the head to the airport.

      We have also been delayed by 40 mins in the aeroplane.

      We arrived at the beautiful apartment in London and eagerly waited a well deserved pizza.

      Happy Birthday Richard
