A Last Dash around London

18 Jan ’15

Well, we moved to a flophouse hotel for our final night in London. It was next to Paddington Station, so easy enough to catch the Heathrow Express and our afternoon flight home.

What an incredible five weeks! I don’t think it would have been possible to have had a better vacation. Sure there were a few off days here and there, with a bad meal thrown in occasionally, but given the length and lack of planning, that comes as no surprise.

Ha! Being a tourist at Paddington Station, though we totally got lost trying to leave.
