London Town

We had an adventure packed day yesterday. The train from Putney to Waterloo was the first part of the expedition. For some that might be boring but for little boys it can be quite exciting. The main purpose of the outing was to do a cruise on the Thames with Claire, Phillipa, Annabel and Nanna. Nicholas enjoyed identifying the landmarks of the London skyline while Daniel pointed out all the boats on the river. After a bite to eat we bid farewell to our friends and went for a leisurely stroll along the South Bank checking out the street artists and musicians. I should have guessed that we would get stuck at the graffiti decorated skateboard park where Nicholas sat watching the skaters in total awe. At last it was time to fetch Dad from his office on The Strand and enjoy a drink in Covent Garden while soaking up the buzz. Then it was back to the South Bank for a splash about in the fountains to cool off before supper on the banks of the Thames. It was a perfect action packed day out and it left me thinking, like usual, that we should visit London Town more often.
