A birthday Trip To London, coming home!

Last Saturday, we got up for Breakfast and had the Breakfast In A Basket!!!

AND we had coffee!! (I know Andrea loves coffee, specially first thing in the morning!!)

We started off with Corn Flakes!

Andrea let me have the Croissant!! We had lots of these in Paris - I love the Chocolate Bread best of all, but we didn't get any of that at Youth Hostel.

Then we got our bags and got ready to go Home!
I didn't really want to leave just yet, but it's always nice getting home!

We got the 73 Bus again, back to Victoria Station.

And we passed by this Gothic Building in Park Lane! Andrea says it's a Bank that some people call Rip Off Merchant. I don't understand why, it's such a lovely building.

We then went past these lovely white pillars.

And here we are at Victoria Station again!! This time, the bus only took us 25 minutes!
We had enough time to have Sight Seeing before we got Coach home.


We saw this little clock! Andrea says it's a smaller version of a thing called Big Ben.
I guess this is Little Ben, then?

And we saw a gold Ballet Dancer on top of this building!! One of the belly dancers we saw last night did some Ballet Belly dancing, but she didn't wear gold.

And then we saw these Stone Carved Animals! They're kinda scarey!

And a Shark too!!
Run for your Life!

Oh! There's a sign for Coach Station! We've got to go there...!

Oh! This sign says it's this way....

We put one of my Works of Art on this telephone! It looks much happier now!

That's where we're going!! We got here very early though -

So we got on earlier Coach to get Home!

Here we go! Past all this green stuff...

There's a lot of that green stuff around....

And we stopped at Gatwick Air O'Port. We didn't get off here though...

We kept on going..... those are the South Down Hills in the distance but the clouds started to fly low down, so we couldn't see the Hills very well.

The Clouds came down so low that we couldn't see anything at all out of the window!!
I hope the driver can see the road!!

Oh here we are! This is the Church that we passed on the way to London!

And we're back at the Coach Station where we started!!

When we got home, we unpacked, and I looked at all the things I can put in my Scrapbook!
I'm on Scrapbook Number Three now!!

A Birthday Trip to London!

Last Friday, I was told I was going to London again!! So I started packing. I'm good at packing...

All done. ....!

I got taken to the Tourist Information Centre first to get something called Coach Ticket...

We had enough time before the Coach to do some Sight Seeing. We got given a Free Lunch!! We can have this on Coach! I wonder what Coach is...?

While we were Sight Seeing, we saw this carved Pole!

And we saw Dog Sticker!!

Then we went to Coach Station.
Oh!! That's Coach!

It's going to London! We're going to London too!

And we're off...!

We went past Church...

This is on the way to London, I hope...!

Oh! We've arrived at Victoria Coach Station! Wonder where we go now....

Way Out! That's us!

I think we go this way now...

We stopped to ask this funny guy for directions...!!

We found these shiny Pigs!! I think they must be related to Sullivan...

Oh! Buses! Let's get the bus!

We got on number 73 bus. Andrea said it was the right one. The bus got stuck in a place called Oxford Street.... and it took us one hour and ten minutes to get too....

St Pancras Youth Hostel?! I've stayed here before!!

We got Bottom Bunk. They're easier to get into, I like Bottom Bunks.

Check the view now.... that's King's Cross there...

After we'd dumped our bags, we went over the road to British Library and saw this Map! It's of New York City, apparently. I've never been there....

And illuminated Letters!! I love these!

Andrea took me inside and we found a new Beanie Seat!
It's a Big Book!

We found some books on Computer and one of them had a mouse in it!

Oh I remember this guy! I've seen him before!

We saw another sculpture over the road.

We went for a walk and saw these ladies too. They don't look very happy....

Bloomsbury Theatre? Wonder what they do there...

Belly dancing?? Belly dancing!! There's a bellydance concert there tonight!!

And we've got a Ticket!! To see the Bellydance Superstars!!
Tonight!
Because it's my Birthday!
Andrea then took me down the road for Dinner. We lost some Art on the way...

We went to Pizza Express for dinner and had Soda. It makes me burp but Andrea doesn't seem to mind.

Pepperoni Pizza! My favourite!

AND pudding! We had Americano coffee and Coffee Icecream with a chocolate straw and a coffee bean on top!

We then had a stroll around town before the concert...

We did a bit of Jubilee Walkway too.

Andrea says that's the top of the BBC radio tower in the distance. Coo..!

When we got back to the Theatre, Andrea got me a Programme and I had a good look through it. I got some good ideas for costumes too. We weren't allowed to take pictures of the concert though but Andrea says the DVD will be out in about six months time. She says she's going to get one too!

We wiggled back to the Youth Hostel very happy!

Oh what a fun night out!!
