Last Day in London

Final breakfast in Shepherd’s Bush at the Wild Thyme. It was the best yet! 

Norm’s waffles with bacon, fresh fruit and ice cream. 

Perfect poached eggs.

Into town to see the Tower Bridge (from a distance) new buildings and the Borough Market. 

So different.

The Borough Market is one of the oldest and largest markets in London, dating back to the 12th century. It is found at the south end of the London Bridge. We arrived just before lunch and the food was ready!

Paella anyone? 

We had never seen white lettuce with bits of pink. 

We did sample a pretzel, honey and cheese.

Next we walked to the British Museum. 

An exhibit, Charmed Lives in Greece- Ghika, Craxton, Leigh Fermor that Norm wanted to see. 
It focused on the friendship of the artists Niko Ghika and John Craxton and the writer Patrick Leigh Femor. It was quite interesting seeing how they lived in Greece and shared their love of art, literature and Greece. 

Now for a walk to Regent Park. We traveled through Soho, along Regent street.

The high end shopping! But fun to look. 

In Regent Park. Nice open spaces and lots of trees.

Even a rest on the benches.

Back to Shepherd’s Bush before rush hour. Finish off our day with Napoli pizza. Delicious.

Tomorrow we fly home. It has been a really good holiday.
