A trip up to town on a rather cold, and in the end, miserable, wet day.... Here are some of the kiddies at the train station, waiting for the train to arrive - definitely hat weather!
First stop was the Transport Museum, where I seemed to have managed not to take any photos. We then walked down to the Aldwych and grabbed a bus up Fleet Street to St Paul's Cathedral, where we went in only as far as the coffee shop in the crypt...
...as it was quite expensive to actually go into the Cathedral and with small, unappreciative children, we didn't deem it worthwhile. We did, however, find this somewhat amusing stone on the floor:
Perhaps not amusing to all, but Sarah enjoyed it. So we walked around the church (but not widdershins*, of course!) and then got back on the bus to Waterloo.
*an old English word for anticlockwise - it's meant to be bad luck to walk around a church in that direction, apparently
And I share this photo on behalf of Alex, who enjoyed the cranes which the London skyline always seems to be littered with...
