Great day out!

Loved the giant waterlillies!

Kids playing 'wet bum' game!

Train back to phil!

Got more food from Lebanese deli!

Off to airport!

90 min delay!

Sat and sat and sat around!

Got home at 1:30am! Thankfully all slept until 9:30am!

Our last day in London

Started off at Phil's 'local' Lebanese deli.

Then headed off on the tube to Kew Gardens (Zaz only wanted to read her book)

Gorgeous gardens! (Best to book online) ...

Lots of picnicking, smelling the grass, hugging trees, walking, climbing, chilling

2 amazing big greenhouses!

Zaria’s poem about London

Made up in Uber en route to airport

(She got slightly tired at the end)

A bit of editing from me - but not much!

From Sydney to Malta we did arrive

It was so hot, we didn't think we would survive

Thankfully dad came home one day

And said, ' to London we go, no need to pay' (not true)

So we flew for three hours, quick Mom was scared we'd all get sick Nevertheless we ventured out

Off to Gina we did without a doubt

We saw many of moms friends while we were there

For Rhodians in London are not rare

For example one day we met a friend

After a busy natural history museum end

There were so many people you could hardly see

Even though it was huge indeed

That was the other thing about London

There were SOOOO many people getting stuff done

There were people working

There were people talking

There were also people walking

People people everywhere

So it's hard not to stare

So many people means lots of shops

And definitely lots of cops

So off we went to different places

Waterstones, M & M store, all in the races

Harry Potter was a big hit

Honestly it was "ligit"

Merchandise galore at every attraction

It was great lots of interaction

Lots to do lots to see

Oh yeah Harry Potter and me

In each day we would go

And find a nice place to take it slow

We would eat yummy food

For any mood

We ate all Healthy

We had to be wealthy (not true)

By Chloe's was a fave

Tapas was in a cave

Nandos obviously took a big win

And we were sure none went in the bin

One day after by Chloe's we went

To School of Rock it was meant

West end was great

It was a date

School of rock was rocking

Moms singing was shocking

The nice thing about London was all the greenery

Oh Malta, please be a London wanna be

Convent gardens street performers were great

So we sat a while watching them, for a gold coin, mate

Gelato was had every day

This made us very gay

We got thirsty and so we went

To a thousand public toilets - no rent!

Four seasons in one day

Sometimes light sometimes gray

To get around we would go on the tube

'Mind the gap' and then you move

It was hot and sweaty at seven

The rest though was Transport heaven

Last day was Kew Gardens

I'm tired look it up online!!!!

We went everywhere there was to find

Keeping everything in mind

Back to Malta now it's soon

Feels like back to the moon

Bye bye London

It was fun

We got lots done

Fun fun fun

5 years ago

We miss you cas!!!!!!

Funny Azi

We looking at the different luggage tags at M & M shop ... Azi sees this one and says, 'mom - this is you worrying if you have the passports! '

Thursday rain

Woke up to a rainy rainy London! (Not bad - 1 out of 5 days)

Tried to make it for the Harry Potter walking tour ... but it was too wet!

Bought some brollies! Enjoyed the M & M store and all the merchandise there, then onto the LEGO store - Kids had fun making little figures!

A 15 min walk in the rain to 'by Chloe' for lunch! Followed by 'school of rock' on west end!

Awesome awesome show! Loved it!

Came out at 5pm yo sunny skies!

Off to convent gardens for the best gelato we have had in London! Vivaldi (I think) - watched a great street act!

Took a hot and stuffy tube home at 7pm!

Still sunny!

Dinner at home and flop into bed (although Zaz is very into her new book! )
