28th April 2009 Paris to London





Left Paris this morning early and we really had a great time there - what a beautiful place! Then caught a flight to London (which was delayed an hour due to fog) which was only an hour long - the kind of flight we like. Caught the train from Heathrow and then the tube to our hotel which was an effort and a half dragging our heavy suitcases up the stairs - no lifts or escalators - what the! We went to get on the tube to the YHA and Emily got on and Tim put 3 of the suitcases on and the doors started closing and we were still on the platform - Oh no!!! So some guy on the tube and Tim pried the doors open thank god as that would have really topped the day off. Any way made it the YHA which is really great and alive with people young and old. Dropped our stuff off and then headed back out on the tube to discover a bit of London. There was a little bit of light rain but then it fined up with blue skies - but freeeeeeezing!! We went to Picadilly Circus and then walked to Leister Square and bought our tickets for Wicked which we are seeing on the Thursday and then walked to Covent Garden via Trafalgar Square. Shaun rang and we are catching up tomorrow night which will really good - cant wait. Home to bed as we are all so tired and we stayed up late in Paris as it doesnt get dark until 10pm.
