On the weekend before Christmas we had out first trip to London. We caught the train up on the Friday afternoon. Luckily the flooding that had closed the train line on Thursday had subsided. The trip takes about 2:45 hours. We stayed at a hotel near the Tower of London.
On the Saturday, it was quite wet and we decided to go on the London Eye and visit the London Aquarium, which were both indoor activities. Our friends from Weymouth, the Lochs, joined us for the visit to the Aquarium. After lunch we went to Trafalgar Square via the Horse Guards.
Ben was very excited to see all the London taxis and red double decker buses.
On the Sunday, we visited the Tower Bridge museum and the the Tower of London. The kids were treated to a lunch at Pizza Express.
After lunch we had to get ready for the next adventure. The Eurostar to Brussels. This involved a stop at Tescos where the children as usual spent a lot of time being indecisive about which snacks they wanted to have on the train.
