London-Day 2



We went way out of our way to eat here. However, by the time we arrived, we had to leave to catch the 2 pm train. We are saving it for our next London adventure.
Tower Bridge

London Tower
After our very short tour of all the must see sights in London, we literally ran back to the hostel to grab our 6 suitcases and 2 bags (8 total bags)! We dragged them up and down stairs and in and out of cars to make it to Paddington Train Station 5 minutes before our train arrived. This gave us just enough time to get our Brit Rail Passes validated, run down the platform like deranged tourists and throw our cases on the first car we found. This car was of course first class so we then had to sprint to each car to peer in to see if it was a low enough class for our cheap tickets. No worries, we made it on the train and grabbed the last two seats available for the 2 hour train ride out to our new home. That's when it set in, this is not a vacation. This is to stay.
