And then we came home!!!

Last day in London

 

After breakfast this morning, we headed out on another adventure!

We started off at the bus stop here... wonder where we're going?!

We got on the 202 bus again!!

They got a tag!

And we're off!!

We got off at the last stop, outside Crystal Palace bus station!!

We walked over to the bus station itself - we're getting another bus from here

It's the number 3!!  We're riding this all the way to the other end!

So we raced upstairs to get a front row seat!!

They got a big mast aerial thing there - that's Crystal Palace Park!!  We went to see the dinosaurs there with Sandy Bear!

We tied another tag to the bus.  The quote on it is "How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?"  I ask myself that every birthday!!

OOooo interesting building!!

Where now...?

Oh!!!  An elevated train!!  We've seen loads of those!

Oh wow!

PIGGIES!!!!!

That must be Dad Piggie!

Maybe that's a church, perhaps?

We're going a long way, today!

Oh this is Brixton!  We've been through here before!

That's the top of the Shard over there!!

That grey bit at the bottom is a Japanese restaurant!

Going over the bridge to Millbank

Another interesting building

That's Victoria station over there to the left!  That's our last stop!

We dived into Starbucks to use one of Jerry and Ben's gift cards that we won on the Halloween contest but they didn't take gift cards.  Which is a bit mean.  But we had an iced latte because it had ice cubes in and we were hot!!

Then we went and used the facilities in the station and left them a CD

And then came and got a number 3 bus back to Crystal Palace!

They got a tag as well!

We got another front row seat up the top again!

We went past the Channel 4 television building

And back over the bridge - better view on this side!!

Past another interesting building!!

And down here.....

We spotted some graffiti too!

Back through Brixton

Oh look!!  That's a Pelican sculpture isn't it?

Oh pretty!

Oh, that's the Crystal Palace aerial thingy!

It's nearly our stop!

Here we are!!

There's the main bus stop - but the bus we need doesn't go from there....

It goes from over there!!!

So we crossed the road and came to this bus stop

And got the 202 again!

They got a tag too!

And we're off!

We got off here and walked down the road....

....back home for a rest!

Later on we went out again because we got a bit peckish and we hadn't had lunch yet

We came to this bus stop

And got the 176 all the way to the end.  (We're getting this bus the other way tomorrow!)

They got a tag!

Wonder where we go now

Aha!  This is the last stop, we're in Penge!  We're off to find a cafe for a cold drink.

We found this on the way!

Oh, here will do!!

We got a peanut butter slice with some ice cream and a mango smoothie.

They were FANTABULOUS!!!

Then we went back to the bus stop

Oh wow!!!!

Here's the stop!!

We got the 176 again!

they got a tag too!

OOOooo that looks slightly art deco!

that's fancy!

And we got off here as we needed to pop into Tesco on the way home

We crossed the road here and spotted this!

That entrance looks slightly art deco too, I think.

After a cuppa tea and a lie down at home, we decided it was dinner time!!!

So back here again!

And ANOTHER 202 bus!!

they got a swatch card this time!

we got off here - you can see Andrea's shadow there!!  Hahaha!

We decided to eat here again!

We perused the menu with a free popadom and a not free fizzy drink

And decided on Kukhura Aloo (chicken and potato in a yummy sauce with lots of spices in it) and pilau rice

And then it was time to head off!!

Yep, you guessed it!!!  It's the number 202 again!!

And got off here!

When we got home, we got our passports rubber stamped (we can choose stickers when we get home)

They said on the news it got to 35.1C at Kew Gardens today, beating yesterdays record high!!!

The restaurant gave us a chocolate each tonight!  It was a bit melted by now but we didn't mind!!

And then it was bed time!! 

What a day!!!
