So last Sunday morning Natalie, Caden, Marcus & grandma Connie arrived at the flat. I was so excited to see them! Poor Caden had the most difficult time getting his body clock switched around. Their flight over sounded somewhat changeling, it's a good thing that we had nothing planned for Monday except going for a walk around the neighborhood and buying some essentials.
Tuesday we went on a half day bus tour of London, saw the guard change at Buckingham & St. James Palace. Which btw was really awesome. AND Exciting news! We saw Prince Charles and Camilla!
Wednesday we went a day trip to Dover, Canterbury & Leeds.
We drove over the Greenwich meridian. We saw Leeds Castle, then stopped off at the beach in Dover for a foggy view of the Cliffs and the Castle on top. Then onward to Canterbury where we had a tour of the Cathedral and some free time in the town.
It was a big day with the 3 kids, but good one and for the most part the babies did pretty well.
Thursday we hired 2 nannies to come look after the 3 kids for the day and we went to Mason & Fortnum for afternoon tea and shopping! Amazing afternoon and I fell in LOVE with that shop! It's just so amazing google it cause I can't explain it :)
Friday was a trip to the London Aquarium which was super busy due to it being a school holiday but we managed and it was really a fantastic place. The aquarium did not disappoint!
Saturday Natalie & Caden did the Tower of London, Grandma Connie did the market on Portobello Road, and I had a restful day with Ben &
Evelyn, some grocery shopping and cooking for Demetri's Halloween Party. I helped with the food and played a little pseudo hostess since his wife is back in home in Toronto.
Today (Sunday) I am taking Evelyn to a children's Halloween/Birthday party. And all of us have dinner reservations for 6pm. Natalie and her crew are going to High Street Kensingston shopping and to Hyde Park to feed the swans.
Tomorrow (Monday) we are going to the Museum of Natural History and Tuesday very early morning they flew back home. I won't know what to do with myself the flat will be so empty and quiet ;)
