Oct. 14th-16th: Adventures With The Carliles and Other Stuff

We had a great day in the city with the Carliles. They went ahead of us, while we were doing a little school, to St Pauls and we met them there. We took a ramble through the city on our way to The Tower. We went into Old Baily, in a few Wren churches, saw the Bank of England museum, cruised through Leadenhall market and passed by the pickle and Lloyds of London. Eventually we ended up at the Tower.


Looking back at St Paul's.

A stop at St Dunstan's.

Finally the Tower.

This is just after being amazed by the Crown Jewels.

We had a funny tour from a Beefeater, but this is actually not the one we got the tour from.

Walking around the wall inside the Tower.


Finishing up the day with a great meal at the ussual place.
Shopping Covent Garden with the Bartons. Emma had just purchased this mask to decorate, it looks a little scary like this.

A Sunday afternoon with just the family at Hampton Court. Now that we have the palaces membership we can go into Kennsington, Hampton, The Tower and Banqueting House as many times as we'd like.

So, how did you get to Hampton Court? Did you pay for a ticket from Clapham Junction? What a nice place to spend the afternoon!
