We had to pack a suitcase today because we're going on a big adventure!!
Then we scarpered up the road.....
....to the bus stop!
And then we got to the train station!!
We managed to get window seats too!
We brought chicken sarnies to have for lunch, with a fizzy drink!
And we're off!!

We're crossing tht Thames!
We used the facilities and left them a CD
And then we headed off to get a bus

And a big park....
Oh wow, this is a long trip....
Oh we got off here....
We're staying here, at this hotel!!! Yippee!!
We got a room on the 3rd floor! This'll do!
Not a bad view either!
After a cuppa tea, we decided to scoot off to do some sightseeing!
So we walked over to the bus stop....
And got a 65 bus! BINGO ALERT!!
They got a CD too!!
And we headed off....
And crossed over Kew Bridge!
Oh wow! There's lots of trees in blossom round here!
THERE'S OUR CAYKE SHOP!!!
We got off in Richmond and found a sculpture of some monkeys!!
And some yarnbombing! Somebody made a postbox topper!!!
Oh what fun!
Then we decided to scoot back to the hotel....
So we got another 65 bus...
and gave them another CD!
Ther's the Pagoda in Kew Gardens!!
Back over Kew Bridge again
And then got off here near the hotel!
After a cuppa tea or two, we headed back out for dinner.
We walked down this way....
And then round the corner down here....
And came here, it's a Turkish restaurant!
We started with a glass of wine....
And had a mix shish (chicken and lamb) and rice and a salad with balsamic vinegar on it.
And we also got warm bread with two dips (we only tried the white one - yoghurt based - as the red one is super spicy hot. it was all absolutely yummy!
We finished off with a sweet Turkish coffee and some turkish delight!!
They had some pretty lamps here.
On the way back to the hotel, we saw a full moon, it's a pink moon apparently.
And here we are back at the hotel!!
After another cuppa tea, we were so exhaustipated we went to bed!!
We were supposed to be there this weekend!!!!! Waahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI knoooowwww!!!!! :( Our hotel room was non refundable though, so we had to use it or lose it. The other way of looking at it, it's a reccie trip for when you're over!! We're discovered there's an Indian restaurant nearby.....
ReplyDeleteWell at least you're having some fun... sigh... Indian restaurants are always yummy!
