Easy Hotel Paddington London Wednesday 3rd evening
Well our cheap hotel is cheap because the rooms are very small, about 18 square metres including the bathroom and the bed is on a wooden base and you cant put anything underneath. Could be much better organized but has good shower with lots of hot water and it is quiet .
After early promise of fine sunny day it turned cooler in the afternoon but that didn’t affect the fun we had on the Fat Tire Bike tour of inner London-we were a group of about 12 with our guide Matt- a cheerful erudite young Londoner, proud to be English –left from Queensway Tube station and spent 4 hours riding gently, with frequent stops for talks from Matt on the history of places we stopped –went thru Kensington gardens, Hyde Park, past the palaces, Trafalgar Square, Westminster Abbey and parliament ( still standing despite the Govt being in total chaos here with ministers resigning all over the place) and the surprisingly restrained and impressive water sculpture memorial to Diana. Would recommend this bike tour to anyone of any age or fitness level visiting London –all you need to do is be able to ride a bike. Walked back to hotel and crashed for 9 hours. Photo shows Kaye and helen sitting on floor cos only place to use computer.
