Thursday – For breakfast today Kathryn fixed us tomatoes, mushrooms, ham and cheese, crumpets with egg. Randy talked with Kathryn about the house – their move and the amount of work involved.
We went to Harrods first and looked through every floors. All we bought there today was individual breads the size of muffins – plain and raspberry.
Then we went to the Rainforest Café for tea. I was pretty tired and just wanted to rest awhile. When I was ready, we went to the Virgin Megastore and shopped. around Next was Lilywhites on Piccadilly Square; it is ten stories of just sports.
For dinner we decoded to try Aberdeen’s – steak and chicken and fries, and salmon. After dark we walked around and found Chinatown. The entrance is covered with Christmas lights. Lots of restaurants here with menu items unidentifiable to us.
Time to go towards Marks and Spencer. On the street a protest was going on. They had some drummers who kept a good beat, and the protesters were chanting but we couldn’t hear what it was about. Lots of blue-lit buildings and backed-up buses, with the police keeping things under control.
We went to Tessco, a 24-hour store, for a look around, then to Marks and Spencer, followed by a trip to Westminster, where they have a new station with outer doors. We walked around Big Ben, Parliament and Westminster. It was a foggy night and the moon over Big Ben looked great.
Back home then, stopping at the store to buy a Guinness.
