Last outing to London

On 21 March 2009, we headed out of Stanmore - once again bound for London. This was to be our last outing to the capital while living in Stanmore. Seems a shame as we loved catching the London Underground to Westminster and then strike out from there. This time however, the line was closed from Green Park. Now - for those of you who don't have kids and not used the tube, I'll have to explain that Green Park is not the most family friendly station for facilities in London...although their staff are wonderful........



Emily had declared that she wanted to see the Queens house.........so off we went! We walked through Marble Arch.....

After Emily had seen Buckingham Palace, after all that travel through the underground - the mile walk - the crowds, she took one look and said 'I don't like it, daddy'. After an inward scream & an outward smile, we had a bit of a pla around & a spot of lunch in St James Park.

This weekend, I bought a 1954 book called something like "Travel the World in 2,000 photographs." It has wonderful black and white pictures of London and the palace. It is really fun to see the old fashions too.
