Day 1 and 2 - Vancouver to London



 

Little late getting this blog going... Have been too busy sightseeing, eating and sleeping, too tired (and a little bit cranky, hate to admit). No time to edit pics or add much detail; will do the best I can.

Aug 24/25

 



Are we having fun yet? The next pic (with the smiles) didn't turn out - almost like the camera was confused, lol.

Flight to London was uneventful... Left Vancouver Friday evening and arrived in London late Saturday morning.

Stayed at The Regency Hotel on Queens Gate in South Kensington. As mom and dad's room wasn't ready, all of the luggage was left in our room while we went for a drink (or two) to wait. None of us had slept much on the plane so all agreed to catch a couple hours of sleep before meeting up again for dinner.

Forgot to take a pic of our room. TINY! Danny and I felt like we were "dancing" around each other all the time, lol.

 

 

 

 

Residential street (Mews) beside our hotel. Lots of very high end cars parked here...



Had dinner at Bumpkin Restaurant and Bar, just around the corner from the hotel. Meh... Food was ok. Best thing about the place was the location.

 

After our near miss with a dump truck in Thailand, have to say I just LOVE the way they have instructions posted at most crosswalks! Phil and Linda - you guys could appreciate this :)

 

 

Still trying to shake the cranky attitude. Doesn't help that just before leaving got The. Worst. Haircut. Ever. And now I get to be reminded of it every morning of my holiday. Sigh...
