We started off the day by going back to St. Paul’s. Â When we went yesterday it was with the intent of going to the Visitor’s Center, which we had no luck finding. Â Armed with directions today, we had better luck. Â We picked up more info and ideas for things to do. Â All of Bren’s brochures were shows of course. Â Then we headed out on a walking adventure.
We came to Millennium Bridge. Â After crossing it we realized we were at the Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre. Â Mind blowing for Bren. Â We saw costumes, props and the theatre itself. Â We had an awesome tour guide (Bren said she was beautiful). Â Aidan was fascinated with all the details she had.
We headed out to meet up with a pre-booked tour- our second Harry Potter Tour through British Movie Tours. Â We were driven around by bus to lots of the sites where Harry Potter movies were shot. Â Aidan loved this. Â Bren fell asleep for part of it! Â The tour ended at King’s Cross and the platform at 9 3/4. Â It was a bit of a line but a must do. Â Side note- Chris did laundry here so Aidan could again wear his Harry Potter shirt. Â Best Dad ever!
Chris has been managing all our navigation- maps, buses, trains- everything! Â We thought it would be nice to have a special dinner out so Chris (the only fish eater in the family) could have a traditional fish and chip dinner. Â Except that most places don’t have kids menus or things these picky eaters will try. Â But we found an Italian place (across from an “adult movie store”) that had fish and chips. Â It was not a great experience. Â They forgot Chris’ food. Â We thought it was coming and finished our pizza. Â Still no dinner. Â Not great service either. Â So we will have to try another night. Â Chris is a good sport about it all!
