We did our best to look heartbroken, but somehow it came across as "whatever". Don't forget to come back and get us!
Professional tour guide and travel book author always advises travellers to leave London until the end of their trip when they aren't so exhausted. Janet and Phil did NOT seek this advice, resulting in several conversations using the "f" word To double ensure it was a full 3 days of miserable sight seeing Janet had not slept the night before they left and did not sleep on the plane at all.
They stayed at the Georgian House Hotel, near Victoria Station. It was an excellent location and the room was nice.

Cute little lobby area. |
Janet wanted to purchase some "soda water", so asked our desk clerk where to go. He said go left, left again and the convenient store is right behind us. Turns out there was also a fabulous new restaurant there as well - 64 Degrees. They have another location in Brighton that is being awarded a Michelin Star. It was tapas kind of food and they said it was delicious.
Knodles with braised cabbage in sauce. Delicious! |
Thank you, Whole Foods! |
Bonus, they also went to Liberty. Wow!
No Fabricland look here! |
Add to Janet's to do list: shove the iPhone with the Good Pub app on up Phil's buttcrack! Why bother with the directions on the app if you don't believe them?

They walked past Buckingham Palace.
Two of Janet's quilts get to travel as well. She is very slow hand sewing on the binding, so brought them with here to work on in the evening. Here they are at The Cherry Tree Inn at Stoke Row, a small distance from Henley on Thames.
Janet promises to send more updates. She is claiming lame wi-fi service where ever they have been so far. Personally, I think it's way better when we doggies are in charge.
Take care, Janet. Love ya! Pashy and Noodles!
If you have more time in London, the Transport Museum is really good! Mind the gap!
