<\/a>Once we got to the train station, we started looking for the train to get to the hotel. \u00a0The train station was absolutely crazy so we kept passing up ticket lines hoping for a shorter one. \u00a0We finally stopped at one and Matt was just going to wait while I stood with the bags. \u00a0We’d popped into a Starbucks so I was happy for the moment. \u00a0Not more than a few minutes passed before Matt walked back to me and said we’d just find a cab.<\/p>\n
The cab line was much shorter and we figured it was worth the 18 pounds. \u00a0We also figured, we had gotten to the hotel before Matt would have actually gotten through the ticket line.<\/p>\n
We stayed at the Doubletree Westminster<\/a>. \u00a0While I really would have liked to stay somewhere a little less generic, the room was nice, convenient, and had good\u00a0views.<\/p>\n Our room wasn’t ready when we arrived, so we grabbed what we needed and headed to meet E&T. \u00a0We met them at the Embankment Station and then headed out to find lunch. \u00a0We ended up at a place Matt and I had eaten at the last time we were in London over by the Tate Modern. \u00a0We sat down and were both like “we’ve been here before!”<\/p>\n After lunch we decided to take a water taxi to Greenwich. \u00a0Matt and I had to buy tickets but E&T could use their train pass. \u00a0We waited and waited and waited. \u00a0We finally talked to one of the attendants to see what was going on. \u00a0He moved us to the front of the line and we waited for a while longer. \u00a0Finally our taxi came but a large party had taken the wrong taxi and they ushered them onto the next one, which meant we were SOL! \u00a0We finally decided the water taxi was going to be a bust, since we’d been there close to an hour and were still waiting. \u00a0We tried to get our money back but it turned into this big ordeal so E&T took our tickets and were going to submit a refund request.<\/p>\n At this point, we all decided we needed a drink so we headed for a pub. \u00a0We had a few drinks there while a little rainstorm passed before heading to dinner. \u00a0We went to a Mexican place called Wahaca. \u00a0They severed small plates so we tried a few different things, which were all really good.<\/p>\n Matt and I still hadn’t checked into our hotel so we decided to call it a night. \u00a0We made it back to the hotel and got settled in our room, then we walked a few blocks to grab some water and food for breakfast the next morning. \u00a0Another early morning as we were headed to Devon for some family time.<\/p>\n Saturday July \u00a02 – Matt and I were up early to catch our train to London. \u00a0It was really nice having the train station so close to the hotel. I was pretty excited to take the high speed train from Paris to London and to go through the chunnel! \u00a0Matt had never done the chunnel train so it was a first for us both. Since we were crossing over to England, we had to go through customs at the train…<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/a><\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/a>
