Saturday - December 30th 2017
Today we slept a little bit longer and after breakfast we were on our way to the train station. For today we had planned to visit the ArcelorMittal Orbit at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. From Waterloo Station we took the Jubilee Line to the Olympic Park. Once we arrived there, we checked ou the Disney Store at the local shopping centre and then we walked to the tower. Luckily there was no line and soon we were on top of the platform. From there we had a good view over the Olympic Park, where the 2012 Olympic Games were held, and we could even see the city of London in the distance.

Afterwards we wanted to take the London Overground Train to Hackney, but unfortunately the line was closed due to engineering works and so we had to take the bus, which took a little bit longer than anticipated. The reason, why we were on our way to Hackney was the Temple of Seitan. That little vegan restaurant serves amazing vegan burger and it was definitely worth going there. Later we took the bus back into the inner city and went to the Blackfriar Pub, one of the most beautiful pubs I've ever seen. After a refreshing beer we strolled along the River Thames to Waterloo Station and drove back to Wandsworth. There we spent the rest of the evening at The Alma Pub.
