London- Day One

September 8th (Saturday)
The Boys were excellent on the plane ride over, they both slept almost all the way over. Once we arrived at Heathrow it took almost 1 and 1/2 hours to get our bags. We then took the Heathrow Express to Padington Station where Mom and Dad met us. Then a quick tube ride (circle line) to Bayswater station, and a short walk to the center with me grinning the whole way!
We arrived at the center in London around 4:00. We went from there to Portobello Road, The street vendors were starting to close up, but, we still got a bratwurst! We returned to the center where we had more food in Dad and Mom's flat. We set up our bed's and Crashed.

On the Steps of the London Center Just Before Leaving for Portobello Rd.

On Portobello loohing slightly worse for wear!

Eating some yummy Churros (sp?) to keep Finn and my blood sugar up, with a lovely flower stall in front of us.
