London

My train arrived in good time 11;15am. I needed to walk through the newly built st pancras station to the circle line tube(yellow).http://www.stpancras.com/about-stpancras/


The new station was grand new shops and loads of space. I was not really that interested all I had was one thing on my mind, butterflies fluttered around my stomach, i could not keep the smile from my face, this feeling was just fantastic.

I got to the circle line only to find it was closed due to maintenance, my heart dropped for a split second. Now what was I going to do, I asked a steward at the ticket point what the easiest route to Tower hill http://bit.ly/JeMy6. She pointed out that I would have to take the Hammersmith line to Aldgate east and either bus or walk across the short distance to tower hill.


Tower Hill was bustling with tourists, even for myself the sights where fantastic, London always has that something special going on for me. Looking down at the Thames gave me a sense of pride. I took a few pictures on my phone to add to my blog, i had an hour to kill before Chelsea would arrive. My nerves where Jangling so i decided to head for a quick brandy and coke at the local public house Wetherspoons that lay across from Tower hill station. It ended up being a double brandy and coke and soon my nerves started to ebb away.
