Day 95 25 June 2015 Bruges-London

We bid farwell to our 16th Century hotel with its Venetian glass windows.  Bruges was lovely. We are off on a train this morning to Brussels where will connect with the Eurostar to London.  The walk was short but the cobblestones made it seem longer.

We arrived in London via the Eurostar train and luckily we weren’t travelling two days before with the riots at Calais which stopped the trains.  We were even luckier when Elizabeth was taken aside and her suitcase she
We got a black London Taxi to our hotel and we were able to check in straight away even though it was 1.00Pm and we weren’t meant to be checked in till 3.00PM.  After a brief rest and a giant Starbucks coffee we went for a walk.  Now as we walking along we Cromwell Room we spotted a couple who we knew on our Scenic Cruise from Prague to Amsterdam, Evan and Cheryl, along with her twin sister and husband, she works at Carseldine, he works at Wavell SHS and they both live at Zillmere – but of course Evan and Cheryl live a few streets away from us at Geebung.     

We continued on our walk and went past the Natural History Museum, Science Centre, the Albert and Victoria museum, an ice-cream truck (almost walked past it), the Albert Hall and Sainsbury (The supermarket).
