Finally, we get a day out!!!

Well, after all our gadding about for my birthday, we had a breather for a while - and now it's time to get out and about!!!

We met up with our neighbour Carolyn and went up to the bus stop....

And went to the station....

And our train was there ready and waiting!!!  We didn't have to wait long before we set off!!

We gave them a floppy disc too.

We had a bit of a snooze (Carolyn forgot the scooby snax) and woke up at the Shard.  We didn't get off here though.

So...... we went over Borough Market.....

And arrived at Blackfriars station....

We didn't get off there though!!!

We got of here!!!

OH WOW!!!  That's the Christmas tree at St Pancras!!!

That's amazing!!!

That's rather fab, huh?!!

Coo.....

......!!!.....



We quickly used the facilities and left them a CD.  After washing our paws carefully....

We went shopping!!!  (we'll show you later!)

And then went off for our adventure!!!

We had to run for a bus though because we'd gone to the wrong bus stop.

BUS BINGO ALERT!!  We got the 205 bus!!!

And got off here.....

And then got this one!!! BUS BINGO ALERT!  We got the 27!!!

We gave them a floppy disc!

We went past an art deco building on the other side of the road!

And then went this way!

Ooo they got decorations up!

Wonder where we're going?

Oh those are posh houses!!

Ummm this is going a long way!

We went through a shopping district - it's called Notting Hill

And then we got off here on Kensington High Street!!

We walked a bit further on and found a mouse!!!

Next door to this place!!

We're going for lunch!!!

We all perused the menu very carefully.

We both got a fizzy drink......

Then we got a chicken with mashed avo burger with koffman fries - Carolyn got a bhaji burger because that's the one that we've raved about most, also with koffman fries.

That's our burger.  It was good - better than the other chicken burger they do and better than the OGR burger but not as good as the bhaji burger.  I think we'll stick to the bhaji burger at this place, from now on

After stuffing our faces, we went off to the next bus stop to pick up the 27 again to finish off the route.  

It's rather nice round here you know....

And here it is..... we're off again!

They got a CD!

And we're off!!!  We went past the Olympia expedition building....

And found another reflective glass building.....!

Oo there's another Christmas tree up!!

And some sparkly lights too!

And we ended up here at the end of the route!!!  We had to ask the driver where we get the 27 back to Camden and said go down to the corner, turn right and then turn left again.

So we did!!!  We get the bus outside Hammersmith Station!

Here's our stop!

While we waited for the bus, we spotted a spaceman in a window over the road!!

And a fancy building a bit further on!

And here's our bus!!!  When the bus driver saw us waiting, he waved!!!  We like our bus driver!!

And we're off!!!  That's a pretty window there, isn't it?!

There's the Design Museum!

And the entrance to Holland Park!

We're going back towards Notting Hill now.....

Those pillars have mosaics on them!!!

And that's Paddington Station!!!

Those are pretty too!!

OOOOooooo!!

Oh, we're by this art deco place again!

And there's Madame Tussauds!!

And this is near where we got on the 27 this morning!!

MORNINGTON CRESCENT!!!  I love this building!!

Regents Park is THAT way!!

We're in Camden Town now!!

Oh wow!!!

They painted that building.....

OH WOW!!!!

And we got off here at the very last stop!!!

See?  Told you we were in Camden Town!

We had a wander down the road to try and find a bus stop to get back to the station.  We spotted a couple of punk rockers on the other side of the road!

Do you think I'd look good like that?

London's got quite the canal system, you know!

Look at that....!!

Old Boots!!!

Oh that's pretty!!

Then we found some grafitti down a side street.....




Coo...!!

AHA!!  Finally we came across a bus stop that'll get us back to St Pancras!!!

BUS BINGO ALERT!!!  The 214!!!

We gave them a CD!

And we're off!!!

And only a couple of stops later, we arrived at St Pancras!!!
Carolyn thought it was further!!!

We walked around the corner to Euston Road.....

And went back in at this entrance....

And had another look at the Fornum & Masons shop! (We'll show you later!)

Then we walked back past the Christmas Tree - it's got little lights in it!!

We didn't have long to wait for our train!!

And we got a proper seat this time!  HURRAH!!!

We gave them a floppy disc!

We came back over Blackfriars Bridge.....

There's the Shard again!!!

You can see some of the Christmas lights at Borough Market!!!

And we're back home!!!  Jelly Beanie has a sequin stuck on his ear!!!!!!!
HAhahahhaha!!

Now, there's a short wait for the last bus of the day

Which turfed us out here and then we raced home because it's raining!

We got these for Andrea's Mum's Chrimbo present.  She loves these, they're her favourite!

What?  Advent Calendar?  We got an advent calender?

Oooooooooooooooo!!! Tea calendar!!!

ANOTHER ONE???
Andrea says this is for us mice!!!


OOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooo!!!
CHOCOLATE!!!

We get to start this on Thursday!!!
What a fab day out!!
