Our last day in London we didn't really have any specific plans, just kept things simple. We did a bit of window shopping while just walking and walking...and walking around London, had a nice lunch at Pret a Manger (a ploughman's sandwich which was amazing!), and walked to Kensington Palace to check out where some members of the royal family live. Afterwards we went to our favorite Marks and Spencer to get some food for that evening and tomorrow's breakfast before heading to the airport. I was craving Vi's mandarin trifle and found something that looked similiar, but it wasn't half as good...bummer.
Our alarm clock went off at 5am the next morning and up we got, dressed we soon were, and awaiting our taxi downstairs with our packed luggage were we within a hour (that sentence is just awkward! lol) The taxi took us to the Earl's court station where we caught the Piccadilly line to Heathrow Airport. To be safe, mom got us there hours early, so during the wait I started Elizabeth Gaskell's North and South (sooooo wonderful and now a favorite--I liked it better than the BBC movie which is saying something!). Air France airlines got us into France around 2 in the afternoon. Oh Pairee!!!
